a portion of the eligible voters won't be affected as they're likely to qualify comfortably.
some voters who might qualify aren't too worried on missing out on an opportunity (it's only polo, after all)
some have no chance of qualifying at all and wouldn't want to go, or can't afford to.
Each of these groups would influence the result of the vote without actually being affected by the result. How do you determine what an eligible team is? Do you include all teams who can't go to Cambridge?
