I know ignorance loves company, often mistakenly believing it bliss. So before we have anyone invoking the precedent for Natalia Enciso, representative member to LACRALO from 'Asociación Paraguaya de Derecho Informático y Tecnológico' (APADIT) and sole nominee for LACRALO delegate to the ALAC 2011-2013, here are the facts: Fatima Cambronero, representative member from ‘Asociación Grupo de Estudio e Investigación Académica en Derecho, Economía y Negocios en la Sociedad de la Información’ (AGEIA DENSI Argentina) nominated Natalia Enciso Sylvia Herlein Leite, the representative member from Internauta Brasil, seconded the nomination Several member ALS, including the UWI, TTCS and ACUI, supported the nomination At close of nomination, Natalia Enciso was the sole nominee The call to affirm Natalia Enciso's [s]election was NOT quorate There was a concern that technical issues on the digital platform supporting the mailing list may have interfered with the processing of the message announcing the call for the meeting Given the lack of a quorum, any decision of the meeting is negated and invalid The presiding officer ruled that a consensus poll be executed. Now, what is the difference, this case to current one? Jose Arce - the representative member from Amtics, a sensible fellow, an obviously competent attorney and instinctly democratic in his personal value - was the presiding officer. Dev Anand Teelucksingh, the representative member from TTCS - another sensible fellow, instinctly democratic, steeped in democratic principles and whose many bona fides cannot be successfully denied - was the Secretariat. One could look at the election timetable. But one would not discern intent to deceive, to derail Natalia Enciso's [s]election or deny AGEAI DENSI Argentina, Internauta Brazil, ACUI, TTCS or indeed the UWI their choice for representation.
