[Hiroshi Esaki]

Dear Chapter Leaders,

On behalf of the ISOC Elections Committee, I wish to extend our 
appreciation and thanks to all of the nominees and final candidates for 
the Board of Trustees. We are honored that such well-qualified 
individuals offered to serve on the Board. The election results were 
certified today, according to the elections timetable.

CHAPTERS
  In the Chapters election we had 4 candidates for one Trustee seat.
  Walid Al-Saqaf received the greatest number of votes.

ORGANIZATIONS
  In the Organization Members election there were 3 candidates for one
  Trustee seat.
  Robert Pepper received the largest weighted vote count.

Please join me in congratulating the successful candidates and thanking 
all who ran.

It may be of further interest that in the 2018 Elections, 91 of the 122 
eligible Chapters voted, or 74.59% and 68 out of 122 eligible 
Organization Members voted, or 55.74%.

Challenges may be lodged between now and 15:00 UTC on Wednesday,
18 April by email to the President of the Internet Society,
Kathy Brown (brown at isoc.org<mailto:brown at isoc.org>).
Any such challenges must be addressed to the President of the Internet 
Society with a recital of the reasons for the challenge. The President, 
after consultation with the chairs of the Nominations and Elections 
Committees and the members of the Board of Trustees, shall advise the 
challenge author of the Board's decision by Wednesday, 25 April.

Best regards,

Hiroshi Esaki
2018 Elections Committee Chair
