I believe that the above veto, and indeed every other veto, fails. Rule 32 says that a proosal which is vetoed by the admin is considered to have failed. However, the Admin did not veto P678 until he released the voting results. P678 is considered to have passed when "after the votes on all proposals voted on during that voting period have been counted". It's a little ambiguous as to whether that is when they are platonically counted by the rules, or mundanely counted by the Admin, but either way his veto came afterwards, and so cannot change the results (or at least cannot change the changes made to the rules made by the proosal - it might still be "deemed to have failed" afterwards), as that would be a violation of R204.
