Dear All, On behalf of Greg Shatan, Chair of NARALO, we are pleased to announce that the following NARALO candidates have been elected: ALAC Member - Judith Hellerstein<https://icann-community.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/atlarge/pages/99720157/Jud...> (Term: 2026 AGM - 2028 AGM) NARALO Chair - Eduardo Diaz<https://icann-community.atlassian.net/wiki/x/gI-xBQ> (Term: 2026 AGM - 2028 AGM) Since there were more than two candidates for the position of NARALO Chair, the practice in NARALO is to have electors rank the candidates and use the Single Transferable Vote methodology. The number of Rank=1 votes for each candidate is tallied and the candidate with the least is eliminated. For each ballot, the Ranks are adjusted removing the votes for the eliminated candidate and moving up other candidates if necessary. So if a voter ranked the eliminated candidate as Rank=1, the candidate who they ranked=2 is now moved up to Rank=1. And the process is continued until there are only two candidates and a winner is declared. If there is a tie, in the election for ALAC Member, as per NARALO Rules of Procedure 2.3.5, the NARALO Chair may either cause the election or vote to be rerun, or may cast one additional vote to break the tie. If there is a tie in the election for Chair, as per NARALO Rules of Procedure 6.5.2, the determination of the winner shall be made by a secret ballot of three (3) NARALO individuals. The three individuals shall be selected from the current occupants of the following positions, in order (excluding the tied candidates): the three current ALAC Members, the Chair, and the Secretariat. To the extent that three (3) individuals who meet these requirements are not available, the At-Large Staff shall oversee a selection by random from between the tied candidates. There is one exception to the above process. If one candidate gets a majority of the "Rank=1" votes on the first ballot, that candidate is declared the winner. No additional ballots occur. [cid:image001.png@01DCE6C4.0A1C5640] Single Transferable Vote Methodology Result: [cid:image002.png@01DCE6C4.0A1C5640] All results will be posted on the 2026 ALAC and RALO Elections, Selections and Appointments Workspace.<https://icann-community.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/atlarge/pages/964296716> At-Large staff would like to congratulate Judith Hellerstein and Eduardo Diaz, and thank all the candidates for their interest in the position.

So if a voter ranked the eliminated candidate as Rank=1, the candidate who they ranked=2 is now moved up to Rank=1. And the process is continued until there are only two candidates and a winner is declared. If there is a tie, in the election for ALAC Member, as per NARALO Rules of Procedure 2.3.5, the NARALO Chair may either cause the election or vote to be rerun, or may cast one additional vote to break the tie. If there is a tie in the election for Chair, as per NARALO Rules of Procedure 6.5.2, the determination of the winner shall be made by a secret ballot of three (3) NARALO individuals. The three individuals shall be selected from the current occupants of the following positions, in order (excluding the tied candidates): the three current ALAC Members, the Chair, and the Secretariat. To the extent that three (3) individuals who meet these requirements are not available, the At-Large Staff shall oversee a selection by random from between the tied candidates. There is one exception to the above process. If one candidate gets a majority of the "Rank=1" votes on the first ballot, that candidate is declared the winner. No additional ballots occur.

All, I would like to congratulate Eduardo Diaz and Judith Hellerstein on their election to NARALO Chair and NARALO appointed ALAC member. It is well deserved and I look forward to working with both of you to keep NARALO great. I would also like to thank Ron Da Silva, Burth Lum, Eduardo Melendez and Mohibul Mahmud for running and for their willingness to serve. There are plenty of opportunities for meaningful participation and I hope that you will all continue to be engaged with NARALO and all that we need to do. Have a wonderful weekend, and I look forward to seeing you in Seville in two weeks' time! Best, Greg *____________________* *Greg Shatan* *Chair, NARALO* gregshatanalac@gmail.com On Tue, May 19, 2026 at 12:48 PM Rookayya G via NA-Discuss < na-discuss@icann.org> wrote:

Dear All,
On behalf of Greg Shatan, Chair of NARALO, we are pleased to announce that the following NARALO candidates have been elected:
ALAC Member - Judith Hellerstein <https://icann-community.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/atlarge/pages/99720157/Jud...> (Term: 2026 AGM - 2028 AGM)
NARALO Chair - Eduardo Diaz <https://icann-community.atlassian.net/wiki/x/gI-xBQ> (Term: 2026 AGM - 2028 AGM)
Since there were more than two candidates for the position of NARALO Chair, the practice in NARALO is to have electors rank the candidates and use the Single Transferable Vote methodology. The number of Rank=1 votes for each candidate is tallied and the candidate with the least is eliminated. For each ballot, the Ranks are adjusted removing the votes for the eliminated candidate and moving up other candidates if necessary. So if a voter ranked the eliminated candidate as Rank=1, the candidate who they ranked=2 is now moved up to Rank=1. And the process is continued until there are only two candidates and a winner is declared. If there is a tie, in the election for ALAC Member, as per NARALO Rules of Procedure 2.3.5, the NARALO Chair may either cause the election or vote to be rerun, or may cast one additional vote to break the tie. If there is a tie in the election for Chair, as per NARALO Rules of Procedure 6.5.2, the determination of the winner shall be made by a secret ballot of three (3) NARALO individuals. The three individuals shall be selected from the current occupants of the following positions, in order (excluding the tied candidates): the three current ALAC Members, the Chair, and the Secretariat. To the extent that three (3) individuals who meet these requirements are not available, the At-Large Staff shall oversee a selection by random from between the tied candidates. There is one exception to the above process. If one candidate gets a majority of the "Rank=1" votes on the first ballot, that candidate is declared the winner. No additional ballots occur.
