    I like option (b) best as it levels the playing field between large
    organizations and smaller ones.
    I think the cap for option b should be 1 because any other number seems
    arbitrary and favors
    larger organizations. As for reducing participation, if an org is
    participating with more people just to stack the votes
    rather than to contribute then reduced participation is a solution not a
    problem :-)
    
    The next best option to me is (a). As folks have mentioned the current
    policy works most of the time.
    
    I think (c) is least desirable because it favors organizations with
    deeper pockets.
    
    Thank you for the open discussion of this important point.
