I think an election by majority vote would be fairest, the stake should not be of interest.
One could make a comment for each candidate (a "real" proposal would probably be too elaborate). A vote is one vote and at the end the number of votes, not the value, is counted.
Anyone may vote, especially anyone who reads your contribution. The applicants can advertise the election date in their communities.
Of course, this form is probably a bit prone to abuse and double accounts. But it would still be worth a try in my eyes.
It was a spontaneous idea of mine, I honestly didn't really think about the implementation...
What means of voting would you suggest?
By number of accounts, or by stake?
Would everyone be allowed to vote?
Not sure there would any way to hold a meaningful vote that would be acceptable to everyone.

Thank you for your additional thoughts on this.
