There's 1 question regarding the election procedure: are we going to proceed in 1 voting round or potentially in 2?
 
According to the draft procedures the council accepted to follow a first ballot should be taken between alternative candidates and a potential 2nd one between the candidate with the highest score and the "non of the above (nota)" option. Since we've just 1 candidate for the Council Chair the 2nd voting round seems to be the 1st - and only - one.
 
Is this the common understanding?
 

Kind regards
Wolf-Ulrich
