Seth From: na-discuss-bounces@atlarge-lists.icann.org [mailto:na-discuss-bounces@atlarge-lists.icann.org] On Behalf Of Glenn McKnight Sent: Tuesday, January 24, 2017 7:38 AM To: NA Discuss Subject: [NA-Discuss] Opinions Requested Hi Folks Recently I notified the NARALO membership to expect a vote to agree or disagree on including Sebastien Bachollet as a candidate in the slate for the Board seat. Currently only two names are on the slate This week EURALO completed a purpose vote from their ALS's that agreed that he should be included. The rules require that two additional RALO's must agree PASSIONATELY to expand the slate to include Sebastien In order to measure our passion on this subject it seems we need to ask the community first on your views on this subject. If we feel passionate to include him then I will direct Ariel to promptly send out the vote. Please note we have very little time to discuss this situation given the timelines set by the committee. Changes in these processes should be high on the agenda for the next election cycle to reduce this type of confusion Take a minute and express your opinion on this subject . If the majority of the opinions supports a vote so be it. If the majority is against a vote we will tell the committee that our RALO will not hold a vote, A 'no vote' resulting in no support for adding Sebastien to the slate.
