Florida, it seemed, had four good candidates, but I guess Mike Jabobs was disqualified by service time since he got no support.

No, only 100 ABs in '05 so he was still eligible.
Just didn't make anyone's top 3. Bad 2nd half doomed any shot he had.

I was thinking his time on the 2005 roster may have disqualified him apart from his at-bat total.

No, because remember he didn't come up until late August.
He got all his ABs as a pretty much full-time player.
Very little sitting on the bench once he got his foot in the door.

How many voters?
B/c it looks like Ramirez was named on 27 ballots, Zimmerman on 29, and Uggla on 25.

2 writers per city that has a team; so 32 in the NL, 28 in the AL

Each voter lists his 1st, 2nd & 3rd choice and points are awarded on a 5-3-1 basis
