[Chapter-delegates] Emails to notify AC and Chapter Delegates that voting has begun

[Kevin Craemer]

Hi Desiree,
At this point in the elections last year, EC Chair Rudi sent emails to the entire AC and Chapter Delegates lists to apprise them that e-ballots have been sent to all voting representatives/delegates and that the voting period is open until the deadline, Friday, 25 April 2014 at 23:59 UTC.

Would you like to send out such emails?  I'll send you copies of Rudi's emails from last year.  Below are two drafts for your cosideration this year.

Kind regards,
Kevin
