Dear All, The message below is forwarded to you by Cheryl Langdon-Orr. -- Regards, At-Large Staff ------ Forwarded Message From: Cheryl Langdon-Orr <langdonorr@gmail.com> Date: Sun, 28 Nov 2010 11:32:13 -0800 To: ALAC Internal List <alac-internal@atlarge-lists.icann.org> Cc: "alac-announce@atlarge-lists.icann.org" <alac-announce@atlarge-lists.icann.org>, ICANN At-Large Staff <staff@atlarge.icann.org>, "ICANN@mm.icann.org" <ICANN@mm.icann.org> Subject: Re: [ALAC-Internal] REMINDER: Round 2 of At-Large Board Director Election Ends at 2359 Today

From one who is on the side of the dateline where it is already MONDAY  please note the close dates use UTC times and dates not days for a reason (a VERY GOOD ONE IMO) and that means the reference by staff to a day of the week might confuse some...  I do apologize =>  PLEASE  NOTE  the Round 2 Vote closes at 2359 UTC 28th November and at the time of writing this email it is approx 1930 UTC on the 28th so there is a few hours to cast your vote.

Dear All,

In accordance with the At-Large Board Director selection time-line, the second round of the online election for the Board Director starts today and ends on Sunday, 28 November at 2359 UTC. (see http://www.atlarge.icann.org/announcements/announcement-29oct10-en.htm)

All authorized participants - that being the members of the ALAC and the RALO chairs - received their voting credentials by mail a couple of minutes ago.

In accordance with Article VI, Section 4 of the ICANN Bylaws, ALAC members Sébastien Bachollet and Alan Greenberg will not participate in this election as they are among the final candidates. Sébastien Bachollet will be replaced by Olivier Crépin-Leblond. However, in accordance with the NomCom rules, Alan Greenberg cannot be replaced as he is a NomCom-selected member of the ALAC. (see Article VI, Section 4 of ICANN Bylaws: http://www.icann.org/en/general/bylaws.htm#VI)

The complete list of eligible voters is attached below.

******** The question to be put will be the following:

Who should be selected as the At-Large Board Director?

PLEASE SELECT  one (1) preferred candidate.

With possible answers: Sébastien Bachollet Alan Greenberg

********

Please note this vote is a an anonymous, standard, plurality vote. It will not be possible to see live results and who has voted so far.

Should round 2 result in a tie, the ABSdt agreed to use Excel Random Numbers formula to identify the winner. Random Numbers formula allows a random number to be picked out of a given total of numbers.  In the event of a tie vote, At-Large Staff would run the Excel Random Number formula in the presence of a member of ICANN¹s Legal team.

In the Excel Random Numbers formula, the candidates would be given the numerical equivalent to the position of their family name in the alphabetical order (e.g.  Sébastien Bachollet would be given the numerical value 1 and Alan Greenberg would be given the numerical value 2.)
