Report of the Election Committee

Today, the Election Committee confirmed the ballots handled by the  
electronic voting system.

In the Chapter election, we had three candidates:

- Alain Aina - Benin
- Nick Ashton-Hart - Switzerland
- Marcin Cieslak - Poland

62 out of the 78 chapters voted, which is 79.49%.

Alain Aina, who received the highest number of the votes, has been  
elected for a three year term.

In the Organizational Member election, we seven candidates:

- Raúl Echeberria - Uruguay
- Yrjö Länsipuro - Finland
- Jason Livingood - USA
- Bill Smith - USA
- Theresa Swinehart - USA

54 of the 107 Organizational Members, or 50.47%, voted.

They had the opportunity to cast two ballots each. The ballot cast was  
weighted by the class of membership.

Theresa Swinehart and Raúl Echeberria, receiving the largest weighted  
ballot counts, have been elected for three year terms.

Per http://www.isoc.org/isoc/general/trustees/elections/2011/timetable.shtml 
, there is a challenge period in which issues may be raised concerning  
the election. This closes 16 June at midnight UTC, and the resulting  
board is seated
in the ISOC Board Meeting on 30-31 July in Quebec City, Canada.

The Election Committee wishes to thank all of the candidates, the  
people and organizations that voted, and the staff which supported the  
election.

The election itself conducted with the highest of standards and the  
elections committee is satisfied with the electronic voting system  
that was used this year.

We wish ISOC well.

Respectfully submitted,

Khaled KOUBAA
Chair, 2011 Elections Committee
