I agree that it's sad Peterson wasn't alive to see this day. Fortunately, he cast his votes on February 10th, one day before he died. From what I understand, they were going to tally the votes from the other 11 voters before openning the envelope with his ballot. This means that Peterson probably cast the deciding vote for several of the 17 who were elected. It seems only fitting.
