Visible here https://kusama.polkassembly.io/post/279 Bruno is not on the council as of writing, his name also accurately doesn't have the :crown: Still his vote is mentioned as council member.

This is because I voted long ago, while I was on the council, but this proposal has been online since. The tricky thing to decide here now is whether or not a council member's vote no longer counts if they aren't on the council any more? I lean towards yes, cancel it, because this poll should be a non-binding signal of the current council, but given that maybe 5 members of the council are active at all, these polls will be largely empty. Instead, I would recommend adding a new section below the current voters, separate with an <hr>, and subtitle "past councilors", and then in greyscale (apply css filter to address icon) list the past members who voted, but do not count their vote in the final signal count at the top. This would help the proposer get a historical view of their proposal's impression.

Sure, it's clear to me why, yet it shouldn't IMO, and I should have caught that in the review. To me, it's a bug.

I would recommend adding a new section below

This is a totally different feature though.
