Speaking as a nominee who anticipated no actual votes, the nomination, in itself, was more than sufficient ego gratification.
Given the caliber and strength of the rest of the slate, I'm hard pressed to imagine anyone would feel slighted should they have garnered few votes, the votes having instead been cast in favor of some of the greater luminaries on the list.
The strength of any democracy comes, in part, from open disclosure. If some participants in the vote seek an accounting, I don't see any harm in providing it, the privilege of administrative discretion notwithstanding.
