[chapter-delegates] ISOC Election Results - Note from Elections Chair

[David McAuley]

2005 Internet Society (ISOC) Election Results

 

On behalf of the entire Elections Committee, I would like to thank all of
the candidates who stood for election to the Internet Society Board of
Trustees for terms 2005-2008 and who contributed to the Candidates Forum,
thereby substantially exposing their views for the voters as well as for
ISOC members generally.  Similarly, I want to thank the voters in the
election and their efforts to cast thoughtful ballots.

 

There were three selection processes underway during the last few months.

For the election of Trustees by Organization Members, 77 members were
eligible to vote, and we received 37 ballots. The percentage of
organizational members participating was slightly less than last year. No
ballots were spoiled or were otherwise invalid.  Two positions are to be
filled.  After a complete count, factoring in membership-level weighting,
the results are:

 

Daniel Karrenberg    92 votes

Glenn Ricart               64 votes


Accordingly, Daniel Karrenberg and Glenn Ricart are declared elected to the
Internet Society Board of Trustees for 3-year terms.

 

 For the election of Trustees by Chapters, 76 chapters were eligible to
vote, and we received 44 ballots.  Chapter participation in voting was
higher than last year.  No ballots were spoiled or were otherwise invalid.
One position is to be filled.  After a complete count, the results are:

 

Veni Markowski      27 votes

 

Accordingly, Veni Markowski is declared elected to the Internet Society
Board of Trustees for a 3-year term.

 

As part of ISOC's election process, one member of the Board is named by the
IETF, through selection by the Internet Architecture Board (IAB) and
confirmation by the IESG. We are pleased to be able to announce that Fred
Baker will be returning for a new three year term on the Internet Society
Board of Trustees.

As chair of the Elections Committee, I would like to congratulate the new
trustees and thank all of the candidates for their participation in the
process.   I hope that all candidates, elected or not, will find ways to
make contributions to the Internet Society.

 

Formal ratification of the election results is dependent on the outcome of
the challenge period.  Challenges must be received no later than 2100 GMT on
July 17, 2005.  Challenges may be raised by an official representative of an
Organization Member, a Chapter representative, a Candidate, a Trustee or by
a member of the Nominations or Elections Committees. Replies to any
challenges are due no later than August 2, 2005.
