The correct usage there is actually "effect", effect used as a transitive verb meaning "to bring into existence" or "to bring about". See this usage note.--Yaten 22:31, 22 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * How amusing! I was about to argue that no, "affect" is correct, but re-read... with the phrasing "to <...> the decision", I'd assumed the subject the was a pirates "yea" or "nay" vote, but no, the subject is the "majority vote"! I vote yea, to a rewording which effects less affect on grammarians.
