The first vote was an up or down on whether to retain the incumbent GS - no one really knew if there was even going to be a GS election until after that ballot was tabulated.
Next, came the nominating ballot - PM didn't know if his name was even going to be up for consideration until after that ballot was counted.
It was after that ballot - and before the vote on a new GS that Bros. PM and WH bowed out. That made it pretty much a straight up "race" between JJ and DKB. Though obviously, neither had any opportunity to "campaign" as such.

I only followed the proceedings on here, but from what I read, it was a little different from this. I'm going by what Kim Komando reported from the floor.
Maybe I have this wrong, but in the thread, "The end of Haneywood?", it sounds like there was an initial vote in which KH didn't retain the GS office. THEN a nominating ballot in which PM got 660 votes. It was then that he pulled out. It sounds like his name ran twice before he withdrew.
But then again, I may be totally out-to-lunch. Food actually sounds good right now.
