From what I've seen and heard the main wiki and Discussions are mostly separate, and that a new admin wouldn't effect them much.

Also, to address your point, I don't see how holding the vote here instead of on Discussions would in any way "take away the votes" of anyone. Because if a Discussion user wanted to vote they could very easily just come onto the main wiki and vote.
