Quite a few said they voted for it, not because the pay was adequate, but because they saw it as the lessor of two evils. If everyone who thought 4833 was way too low had voted no, I submit that the number in favor would have been way lower than 62%. There's a reason why marketing and scare tactics work.
I'm not hiding behind anything. I'm simply stating that without facts, your argument is nothing more than your opinion. As is mine. That's undeniable. I have NO idea what the minimum pay number on that survey was. Neither do you. We can guess all we'd like to, but that's all that it is. A guess. As for those who claim to have voted for it because it was the lessor of two evils, well IMO that's not an excuse. It's either acceptable as a whole. Or it's not. You don't think the pay is acceptable? Vote it down.
