Dear all, With 12 out of 19 APRALO ALS representatives having voted in the recent APRALO Vice Chair 2010 Elections we can confirm that the results are quorate. ************* APRALO Vice Chair Elections 2010 The question that was put was the following: "Please indicate your preference for each of the candidates for the two currently open APRALO Vice Chair positions. Your preference is indicated by clicking on the box to the left of each name. The order of preference is from most preferred (your first click), to your lowest preference (the last clicked). You must indicate a preference for each candidate for your vote to be valid. The candidate with the highest preference will be appointed for a two-year term. The candidate with the second highest preference will be appointed for the remainder of Mahmoud Lattouf's term which ends in March 2011. " The election result is as follows: Rank Candidate 1 Les Allison 2 Fouad Bajwa 3 Sivasubramanian Muthusamy ************ Les Allison will be appointed to the Vice Chair position for a two-year term. Fouad Bajwa will be appointed for the remainder of Mahmoud Lattouf's term. For the full results, please consult the following URL: https://www.bigpulse.com/pollresults?code=zXtuaY8C2MzgNsWST2bt Please note that only the candidate with the highest preference is listed as elected on the voting page. Fouad is therefore listed as not elected on the voting page. However, since there were two open positions and as noted in the introduction to the vote the runner-up is elected for the second APRALO Vice Chair Position which ends in March 2011. Attached you find a detailed explanation. It's a detailed narrative explanation on how the result came about. In addition to that, you will find a explanation of the voting method. Voting Method: The online election used the single transferable voting method (STV). This voting method is based on multiple rounds of voting whereas the candidate with the least preferences is taken off the ballot after each round. The preferences from voters having voted for the candidate with the least preference will automatically be transferred over to the remaining candidates. Voters only have to cast their preferences once. For additional information on STV voting see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single_transferable_vote We thank all candidates for their participation in this election! -- Regards, Heidi Ullrich, Matthias Langenegger, Seth Greene, Gisella Gruber-White, Marilyn Vernon, Kristina Nordström ICANN At-Large Staff email: staff[at]atlarge.icann.org website: www.atlarge.icann.org
