Hello NARALO'ers (-ites?),
There was a brief discussion on Monday's call about a pending election. I realize the discussion and issue is very confusing so I will hope to sort it out here for everyone. IF I HAVE MADE ANY FACTUAL ERRORS IN THE PROCESS PLEASE TELL ME.
The ICANN Board of Directors has one seat for an At-Large representative ("Seat #15"). The term of our current Board member ends this year. This person is voted on by leadership in the At-Large Advisory Council (ALAC) and the five (5) RALO chairs under rule #27.7.
Current Board is here: http://www.icann.org/en/groups/board
ALAC members running for the Board may NOT vote in the election. This means a proxy voter must be selected and affirmed by a vote under rule # 19.10.1. The vote is a requirement, but how the alternate voters are selected is not defined.
Two of our ALAC members: Alan Greenberg and Evan Leibovitch, are both running for seat #15 so we need TWO replacement voters from NARALO.
Since I am the Chair and I am already voting. I cannot have second vote.
These are some of my sugestions for selecting alternative voters:
1. Assign the votes to our two other leadership positions: Louis Houle (NOMCOM) and Glenn McKnight (Secretary)
2. Select two (2) alternate voting candidates though a VOTE from ALL of the NARALO ALS operators, excluding the ALAC reps and NARALO Chair - affirm two alternates by vote.
3. Select two (2) alternate voting candidates RANDOMLY from ALL of the NARALO ALS operators, excluding the ALAC reps and NARALO Chair - affirm two alternates by vote.
I will entertain other suggestions.
To be clear, there are several "votes" involved here:
A) Potential vote for method of selecting alternative seat #15 voters (vote not required, can be done through consensus) B) An official vote for two (2) alternate seat #15 voters (ALL ALS representatives vote in this process) C) A vote for the Board seat #15 representative (Voting by Eduardo Diaz - ALAC, Garth Bruen - Chair, Alternate #1, Alternate #2)
There are many who would prefer that we select a Board representative through a vote by ALL ALSes or ALL At-Large particiapants, but that is a separate discussion.
Thanks, Garth
