Sure it was a violation of procedure. 

Problem is, *if* we re-vote, then knowledge about the first vote enters the 
decision. Which is a very tricky thing and can easily be argued to make the 
hypothetical re-vote invalid in itself.

Unfortunate as the situation is, at least the voters' decision was not 
influenced by the later publication of votes.
