The results of the poll of the team squad were published to the members on 11/3.
The selection committee did no voting on this, other than individuals that were on the squad voting in their class.
As to who voted for who, I expect this will remain withheld, as I believe it should be, so as to avoid the enabling of personal attacks based on how a person voted. I'm sure the SSA BOD could appoint a non involved person to verify no funny business, but there is no reason to believe this is needed.

The selection committee only administered the vote by peer pilots and tallied the results. They did not exercise the option in the selection process to adjust the results of the vote to reorder the selection list. Some participated in the election / survey they qualified to vote in. Those pilot votes were by secret ballot and should never be disclosed.

The selection committee promised to disclose the rationale if the election results were altered per the process. They did not promise to explain why pilot peers voted the way they did. The ballot did solicit voluntary comments which were also promised to not be attributed. They might be interesting or entertaining, but they are irrelevant except maybe for shaping the next campaign. I don't expect those to be disclosed.

I am not on the committee, but have spoken to several who are, and I definitely had an interest in the outcome.
