This is not well defined
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Well-defined_expression

"before each vote" is not a single unique point in time

First what is meant by "vote", theres a annoucement of some
intend to make a vote, there would be a discussion, there could
be a 2nd annoucement theres a period where people can propose
new options. Then the vote start is announced at some point
the actual vote start then also happens.

So we have many reference points
then "before" is everything before, even a year is "before"

and exactly at the time when the vote actually starts is impossible
because at that time the list must already be known and entered
into the vote system

I guess this doesnt matter if the option doesnt win ...

thx

Its not that you shouldnt use gotos but rather that you should write
readable code and code with gotos often but not always is less readable
