<p>HI All <br>
</p>
<p>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 <br>
</p>
<p>There are two separate votes. 1) for the NomCom from <a href="mailto:tally@icann.org" target="_blank">tally@icann.org.</a> Here the
choice is either Glenn or Eduardo and </p>
<p>2) For the ALAC Election from <a href="http://mailbox@surveys.icann.org" target="_blank">mailbox@surveys.icann.org</a>.
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 <a href="mailto:Tally@icann.org" target="_blank">Tally@icann.org</a>. <br>
</p>
<p>If you have not gotten your ballot, please reach out immediately
to Staff --<a href="http://Staff@atlarge.icann.org" target="_blank">Staff@atlarge.icann.org</a>, and
they will work to make sure that you receive it in time. <br>
</p>
<p>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. <br>
</p>
<p>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 <br>
</p>
<p>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</p>
<p>Best,</p>
Judith

<p>Hi Loris,</p>
<p>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.<br>
</p>
<p>There are two separate votes. 1) for Glenn from <a href="mailto:tally@icann.org" target="_blank">tally@icann.org</a>
and 2) one with is a survey monkey for the ALAC vote,
<a href="mailto:mailbox@surveys.icann.org" target="_blank">mailbox@surveys.icann.org</a>. 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. <br>
</p>
<p>Thanks for your support, I really appreciate it, and I am
always there for you if you need anything</p>
<p>Best,</p>
Judith

<p>HI Loris,</p>
<p>I hope you are well. As you may know, I am running for the

the ALAC leadership team are at a point of transition and
reform, and that I can play a valuable role in this
transformation.</span><span><span>
ALAC and At Large have been working hard to ensure the
success of the multistakeholder model through advocacy,

As you know, Glenn McKnight is running for NOMCOM and would make
