The vote apparently ended, down to the hour, about 9 minutes ago, at 11:04 PM, EST (as of typing it's 11:13 PM EST).

As a result, anything after that, including other disqualifies or votes, I'm not gonna count in the totals. This means the disqualified disqualify that (implying nobody else posted) is above me isn't counted.) Though, as you'll see, it won't really matter, due to the way the totals add up.

Also, the abbreviations next to the totals on the raw votes were the usernames of the users who supported/neutraled/opposed. This was to track who had voted and who had not.

= Totals =

Raw totals

 * 8 supports (SSU, BP, MoSn, SG101, L8763CP, GNi, BP, TT,)
 * 0 support-neutrals
 * 3 neutrals (ZA, SD, HDF0)
 * 2 neutral-opposes (YY21, BZ)
 * 4 opposes (NA, SF, LB, MS)

Weights

 * 8 supports
 * 5 opposes
 * Fraction is 8 / 13

Percentiles

 * Percent: 61.53%
 * Target: 65%
 * With an almost comically low difference of being 3.46% below the threshold, the vote is opposed.

Remarks

 * Even if the disqualified disqualify for Pinkgirl's vote counted, the percentile as it currently is would still be below the vote's threshold, at 8 / 14, or 57.14%.
 * Over half of the votes were disqualified for using various reasons (reasons addressed in the original post, reasons not relevant, reasons with no basis)
 * Only if all of the disqualifies counted would this have succeeded, and even still, Mental Skillness' last second vote change would have made it hilariously close, at the percentage of...
 * 9 supports
 * 1 neutral-oppose
 * 4 opposes
 * 66. 6 % total
 * For a total of a 1. 6 % above the target range.
 * In addition, if one more half-oppose was added, that'd be enough to push it back.

You win this time... Okay, nah, I won't be as bitter as I was in the voting itself. I'll accept it in stride, but only because the results were so datalicious. Don't expect to see me in 2 months, though... at least, for voting on this, at least. You can expect to see me in general.

But in all seriousness, sorry to the people I disqualified who felt it was unfair. I kind of let anxiety get the better of me for the last 24 hours there. Just know that disqualified or no, if just one more person did a half-oppose, you'd still be considered the one who'd count.

...and hey, was still a better, more fair vote than the 2016 US election.
