Fwd: [At-Large] ANNOUNCEMENT: Results from Round 1 voting for At-Large selected Board Member for seat #15 of ICANN Board
Given the poll of EU ALS: Sébastien Bachollet: 7 (36.84%) Alan Greenberg: 6 (31.58%) Abstain: 4 (21.05%) Pierre Dandjinou: 2 (10.53%) and outcome of round one of the general vote:
*Names. Votes %* Sébastien Bachollet 43.75 Pierre Dandjinou 25.00* Alan Greenberg 31.25
What should we consider as the will of the EU ALS for the next round? Or does this close result mean all of us, Wolf included, are free to vote as we think best? Thoughts? Best, Adam

Voting for *Round 1 voting for At-Large selected Board Member for seat #15 of ICANN Board, *has now been *completed** *and the poll has closed, the vote is quorate and the results show that a Round 2 vote is now required to be held.
The ABSdt processes (as approved) state that, should it be required, a Round 2 will be held: *"26 28 November: Second round of online voting." **This announcement is to both release the results of Round 1 and to prepare the At-Large electorate to undertake their Round 2 vote.* * * *The percentage table results from the Round 1 vote are shown below: *
*Names. Votes %* Sébastien Bachollet 43.75 Pierre Dandjinou 25.00* Alan Greenberg 31.25
This shows that the candidate who will drop out with the lowest percentage support (number of votes), and not continue to round 2 vote is Pierre Dandjinou*.
I have now instructed staff to set up a *Round 2 vote on Big Pulse * which will *start ASAP on 26 November and run through 28 November at 23:59 UTC.*
The vote will be between Sebastien Bachollet and Alan Greenberg (listed in that order) . Voter options will be to *select one (1) preferred candidate*; All electorate members should expect to receive their voting credentials from staff and the usual announcements re the vote, within the next 12 hrs => If you do not receive your voting credential please contact staff directly. Note also that the previous 'in the event of a tie' arrangements will be in place -> good luck to both of the remaining candidates...
I have also requested staff to arrange for suitable wider publication of these results and the Round 2 vote beginning through the wider At-Large and ICANN announcements mechanisms as soon as possible.
Please also not I have taken the liberty of emailing the three candidates in the Round 1 vote and informing them of these results, whilst thanking all of them for their contribution and ongoing support of this important and landmark selection process, I'm sure I reflect the feelings of the community when I also specifically thank Pierre here in this message for his willingness to serve as the At-Large selected ICANN Board member, and for his active and professional participation in the campaigning processes; and that we look forward to his renewed and continuing involvement with At-Large and the ALAC's work within ICANN.
Finally as soon as possible after the Round 2 vote closes (and any tie is broken by the random method previously outlined) I will inform the community of the outcome and write to the ICANN Company Secretary Mr. John Jeffrey, informing him of the At-Large selected person for seat #15 of the ICANN Board of Directors, so that they may take their role on the Board as planned at the Cartagena meeting.

I always thought that should be that case for all in all rounds, so certainly believe it should be in round 2. I also think the abstention is always a good bet and must say I was happy to see it. Though to be fair, i think every election should include: None Of the Above on every ballot. And when NOA wins or even comes in second, then one rethinks the whole process. But that is just me, and totally beside the point except as a note to those who will be doing the post-mortem on this 'election'. a.

hehe, nice played, I like that one. But you have to admit that this is a really idealistic idea. Har en bra helg, /Manuel -- Regards Manuel Schneider Wikimedia CH - Verein zur Förderung Freien Wissens Wikimedia CH - Association for the advancement of free knowledge www.wikimedia.ch
Well, we don't have an option to abstain, at least not on the ballot. "Abstention" was by not taking part in the vote, and who knows if that was intentional or not (none votes tend to be because people forgot or had some technical issue.) In this case 3 people "abstained". I agree with you about None Of the Above. Next time I hope. As for direction carrying to the second round, I am pretty sure this was discussed some months ago on an EURALO call, but don't remember the outcome (if any.) I think when it was discussed we might have been anticipating a different voting method, anyway, expect someone with a better memory will have an answer. I would like to know as I did not see the vote from the ALSes in time for it to influence how I voted. Adam At 9:59 AM +0100 11/26/10, Avri Doria wrote:

Let me suggest, Adam, that I will continue with my directed vote - as agreed at the beginning of the process - what the ALAC members will do should be in their consideration. My thoughts at least. Best, Wolf Adam Peake wrote Fri, 26 Nov 2010 15:03:

Dear all, I am surprised and somehow confused about the current voting procedure for the At-Large Board director selection. We discussed that we should have a second round of voting if none of the candidates receives more than 50% of the votes. I do not understand why we do not finish the EURALO voting procedure and have a second round of voting. The ALS-voting was intended and conducted under the premises to enable a directed – based on the preferences of our members – vote to the EURALO Chair. Viewing the result, there could be some confusion now: Sébastien is ahead with one vote (7), followed by Alan (6) and 4 abstentions besides the 2 votes for Pierre. For the second ALAC voting round – that started today! –, this doesn’t offer a clear picture and enable guidance for the directed vote of our Chair. He would have to vote on the basis of a personal interpretation of those votes. Because there are six votes (abstentions and those for Pierre) that need to be redirected on the remaining candidates (Sébastien and Alan) – see the EURALO results: [https://www.bigpulse.com/pollresults?code=1461UuvaaRwPXYzZm5RW7vAP] I think our chair has to get a clear guidance and the EURALO members should have a chance to express their preferences for the second round and the remaining candidates until Sunday lunchtime.

Dear all, I agree with Annette’s considerations and call for a 2nd EURALO member consultation due to the fact that the outcome of the 1st voting was extremely tight: Sébastien ahead with one vote only (7), followed by Alan (6) and 4 abstentions besides the 2 votes for Pierre. For the second ALAC voting round this doesn’t offer a clear picture and enable guidance for my directed vote. Because there are six votes (abstentions and those for Pierre) that can be reconsidered and redirected on the remaining candidates (Sébastien and Alan) – see the EURALO results: https://www.bigpulse.com/pollresults?code=1461UuvaaRwPXYzZm5RW7vAP As we cannot technically organise a second voting on BigPulse on short notice, the only option is via a) this list for a 2nd call and responses besides b) private and direct mails I will send to all those 19 participants of the first voting. As the votes in the first round were confidential, we do not know who abstained or voted for Pierre. Therefore, we have to ask all of you to reconfirm your vote for the remaining two candidates: Sébastien Bachollet or Alan Greenberg. If somebody feels unease to express her/his preference in the second round publicly on this list, you can send me a private mail (to Wolf.Ludwig@euralo.org) with Cc to At-Large Staff. This is important to reflect the will of our community in my directed vote in the second ALAC round. And we need your response *until next Sunday, 28 November at lunch time latest*! If I don’t receive responses from all the 19 voters until Sunday, I may have to call you to make this 2nd consultation quorat again and to avoid subsequent contestations. I am counting on your support again! Thanks and kind regards, Wolf Annette Muehlberg wrote Fri, 26 Nov 2010 15:13:
