wording of step six in "election" proceedure

Step 6 currently reads:

Any unbanned editor who has made at least 150 mainspace edits by the first day of the calendar month before the election may vote.

Is "banned" being used in the context of Wikipedia:Banning policy, or is it referring to any blocked user? (nitpicking, I know, but the way it is currently written, I think that someone who is blocked but not formally banned could request to have a vote cast on his or her behalf) J.delanoygabsadds 03:14, 3 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I'd say a blocked user could request to vote as long as they are not formally banned. I say that because it's happened in arb elections IIRC. Speaking for myself here, not for the whole committee necessarily. RlevseTalk 03:34, 3 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

This not how policy is made
