Wow, you are aggressive! You'd only allow about six weeks for people to read and review the nominees! And you'd disenfranchise supporting members! Yeow!
You also appear want to disenfranchise anyone who doesn't have/use a computer. Are you aware that there are fans who don't have e-mail addresses and who don't own computers or have internet access? I can point to some of them, including fairly recent Hugo Award nominees. I helped write the rules that explicitly authorize e-voting, and I deliberately made paper ballots always acceptable, even though in practice they've dropped to nearly zero.
From a practical mechanical perspective, you actually have to allow more time for counting nominating ballots than final ballots, particularly because WSFS rules require that you have to give nominees a reasonable amount of time to decline nomination. Final ballot counting (and trophy engraving) is relatively easier.
