We've seen no small amount of <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/tag/council-of-stellar-management">debate on the CSM</a> in the comments here at Massively, which is actually indicative of the lengthy and contentious discussions on the CSM that take place on <a href="http://www.eveonline.com/ingameboard.asp?a=channel&amp;channelID=759778">the official forums</a> and <a href="http://www.scrapheap-challenge.com">unofficial forums</a> alike, as well as on <a href="http://biomassed.blogspot.com/2009/05/have-you-voted.html">player blogs</a>. <br /><br />We'd already mentioned that the 3rd Council of Stellar Management <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2009/05/21/eves-3rd-council-of-stellar-management-elections-underway/">elections were under way</a> but now those <a href="http://www.eveonline.com/devblog.asp?a=blog&amp;bid=664">election results are in</a>. Two council members from the 2nd CSM were-elected -- Vuk Lau and Omber Zombie. Dierdra Vaal, who sat on the first CSM, has been elected as well. In fact Vaal garnered the most votes in this election (2967) and is thus the new Chairman of the Council of Stellar Management. 9.7% of <em>EVE Online</em>'s playerbase voted in the 3rd Council of Stellar Management election.<p><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2009/05/29/eve-onlines-3rd-csm-election-results-are-in/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>EVE Online's 3rd CSM election results are in</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com"><img src="http://massively.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Massively" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2009/05/29/eve-onlines-3rd-csm-election-results-are-in/">EVE Online's 3rd CSM election results are in</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com">Massively</a> on Fri, 29 May 2009 11:30:00 EST.
