[NA-Discuss] NARALO Elections end Friday at 23:59 UTC and Thursday 23:59 UTC for Individual users

Wed May 22 18:05:21 UTC 2024

HI All

Just wanted to remind everyone to make sure they have received two ballots in 
the upcoming elections and that everyone who is eligible to vote needs to check 
that they received 2 ballots

There are two separate votes. 1) for the NomCom from tally at icann.org.  Here the 
choice is either Glenn or Eduardo and

2) For the ALAC Election from mailbox at surveys.icann.org. Staff is using Survey 
Monkey for the ALAC voting, as NARALO uses ranked voting when there are more 
than 2 candidates. Also, it seems that Staff has not enabled confirmations, so 
you will likely not get a confirmation that you have voted like you have gotten 
from Tally at icann.org.

If you have not gotten your ballot, please reach out immediately to Staff 
--Staff at atlarge.icann.org, and they will work to make sure that you receive it 
in time.

Ranked voting works like this, if you are interested in voting for me than you 
have to put my name first and then choose who you want as second, third and 
fourth choice. If there is no winner on the first round, the system drops the 
candidate with the lowest votes and assigns their votes to second, third, and 
fourth choices that each voter has made.  This continues until there are only 
two candidates left.

For Individual members, you will get votes that say individual member and then 
your voting (Individual voting) ends one day earlier on Thursday at 23:59 UTC. 
Alan Greenberg who is the elected leader of the individual members then casts 
the votes before the election deadline of Friday, May 24 at 23:59 UTC

Thanks for your support, I really appreciate it, and I am always there for you 
and to answer any of your questions if you need anything

Best,

Judith

Hi Loris,

Just wanted to let you know that voting has started, and they are doing things 
differently this year.  Voting lasts until 23:59 May 17.

There are two separate votes. 1) for Glenn from tally at icann.org and 2) one with 
is a survey monkey for the ALAC vote, mailbox at surveys.icann.org. To vote for me, 
you have to put me in first place, and then can put the candidates in any other 
order. Kathleen and Waqar are very new and have not done much. Evan is older, 
more experienced, but has not been active in a while. Also, Evan is not always a 
team player and has views with our, viewed by some as extreme.  At Large are 
using the survey for the ALAC voting since they are doing ranked voting so this 
way if there is not a leader after the first vote, they drop off the person who 
had the least votes and then can see how to assign their votes.  So no need for 
a run-off election. They are 2 different emails.

Thanks for your support, I really appreciate it, and I am always there for you 
if you need anything

Best,

Judith
