As I see it, all Abstain votes would simply be ignored. The tally of yes vs. no votes would decide whether the resolution at vote passes. The point of the Abstain is to allow people to 'turn off' the annoying "(1)" reminder which is pointless if one has already decided to purposely not cast a vote, and to enter a "voted Abstain" in their National Happenings.

If the majority of the WA abstains, the resolution is clearly not seen as being worth the WA's time, and should not pass regardless of how many yes or no votes it has. (I don't think the (1) reminder is annoying, really.)
