@DoubleAA A mod's vote to close or delete is immediately effective (as are certain other things). I've sometimes found myself wanting to vote to close something but not doing so for that reason. If elected, you may find yourself more indecisive. :-)
@DoubleAA Take a look at the numbers. DoubleAA is one of only two Yodeyans (and the only candidate in this election) who would fulfill the stringent badge requirements if this were a StackOverflow election. That's because he is constantly looking for ways to improve Mi Yodeya and constantly stepping up and doing something about it, whether it's editing, flagging, commenting, or voting. The rate of improvement would only increase with him as a mod.

@DoubleAA @AdamMosheh @msh210 @MonicaCellio Thanks very much for your votes of confidence. I think it would be best for the community to have three mods who can generally access chat during the day, which I can't, and there are other practical considerations.

I am quite pleased to see a strong ballot that includes more than enough candidates who don't have this issue and who I think do and/or will make excellent mods. ...
... Rest assured that after I lose my ♦, I will remain meta-active, including in promoting Mi Yodeya, and will not be shy about offering my perspective on meta-questions (as no community member ought to be).
@IsaacMoses Technically msh210 would have a Deputy badge if not for his being a mod.
He ups me with Taxonomist, Yearling and Sportsmanship (the latter two I can't possibly have yet) while I have Enthusiast, Fanatic and Deputy (the last one he can't possibly have).
http://mi.yodeya.com/[anything] now redirects straight to http://judaism.stackexchange.com rather than to http://judaism.stackexchange.com/[anything] as it used to. This seems like a bug; if it is (and I hope not!) status-bydesign, then we'll need to fix all the links (strewn about the site) to U...
