I want to join Benedetta in congratulating Sarah and Stephane. I have every confidence that they will serve the BC with great dedication. I also want to say thank you to Ron and Jimson for putting their names forward. Without volunteers willing to give their time, the BC could not function. J.

Out of 49 BC Members, 38 members voted in this election. Upon reception of each vote, as Voting Officer I tallied each vote and applied the BC weighted voting according to each member’s category. Once the tallies were completed and the voting period closed, Glen De Saint Gery (Returning Officer) and Rob Hoggarth (Verifying Officer) verified all votes, and the tally. The confirmed results are the following: Large Business Seat: · Ron Andruff: 30 votes in favor and 1 abstention · Sarah Deutsch: 51 votes in favor and 1 abstention Small Business Seat: · Jimson Olufuye: 27 votes in favor · Stéphane Van Gelder: 55 votes in favor The winners of the elections are therefore: Sarah Deutsch (Large Business Seat) and Stéphane Van Gelder (Small Business Seat). Please join me in congratulating Sarah and Stéphane. Thank you, Kind Regards, Benedetta Rossi BC Secretariat bc-secretariat@icann.org https://community.icann.org/display/gnsobc/Home www.bizconst.org
