Think he means how come Nelsen didn't get to cast a vote...
Also; does anyone here know who the media person for New Zealand is? I've never heard of the guy before (Gordon Watson)

Former Media man for Oceania Football, former national league player for Manawatu, former coach of Ngaruawahia (and other sides), occassional contract employee of FIFA and NZ Football in media roles.
Very occassional poster on here.
He's a reasonably well known person in NZ football admin his name is Gordon Glen Watson, rather than just Gordon Watson - apologies if I have the spelling wrong GGW).

That is exactly what i meant. I mean the captains from Aruba and Comoros are there so why no Nelsen?

Only found out they merged to the two awards, when Messi won it today/yesterday.
I always thought the Ballon D'Or was a better award, but the generally are the same person. So I guess it makes sense.

BALLON D'OR - THE NEW ZEALAND VOTING GETS ATTENTION IN LONDON MEDIA:
(Winston Reid and Ricki Herbert chose exactly the same players)
West Ham Star Votes Last Season's Tottenham Wizard for Ballon d'Or
"West Ham defender Winston Reid, as national captain of New Zealand picked Bale as his #1 choice, with Neymar second and Lionel Messi in third. They were picks emulated by his national team coach.
Reid saw first hand what the former Tottenham star could do, when he saw Bale fire a dramatic long range winner in the last minutes at Upton Park last season...."

No surprise that CR won that. What a fantastic player.
I also think this is his worth. He spent five years to prove that he can do. He is a great footballer.
This is his history of struggle at Real Madrid. He is forever CR7:http://www.wysjg.com/custom-football-shirts-real-madrid-20132014-cristiano-ronaldo-p-537.html .I'm proud of him. He is CR7 hearts of the fans love.
