Effectively, that's the current vote. The voter is *not* allowed to abstain, if any abstention is not counted toward the total.

I, too, remember someone saying that recently. Personally, I cannot disagree with that assumption, as I fit the description a little too well. However, in theory, the RC votes are supposed to be an aggregate of all the votes in the controller's region, in a similar fashion to how a House Representative is supposed to (but doesn't) vote.
