The minutes give "3-2-0"; Abington writes counts as for-abstain-against, so this is 3 in favor and 2 abstaining (Mr. Bunker and Ms. Zompetti were absent on April 17), but the minutes do not name the members. Showing the count only. The minutes give only the count (3-0-2), not how each member voted.
