Dear Chapter Leaders:



On behalf of the Internet Society Elections Committee, I wish to extend my appreciation and thanks to all of the candidates for the Board of Trustees elections. We are honored that so many qualified individuals offered to serve on the board. Voting closed on Friday and the election results were certified today, in accordance with the elections timetable.



CHAPTERS

In the Chapters election, there were five (5) candidates for one (1) seat. Having received the most votes, Charles Mok has been elected to a 3-year term as a trustee.



Voter turn-out in the Chapters election was 93.38%. Of the 121 eligible chapters, 113 voted. In accordance with the Procedures for Selecting Trustees<https://www.internetsociety.org/about-internet-society/governance-policies/procedures-selecting-trustees/>, Publication of the Result, Charles Mok received 69 votes.



In addition, the Procedures for Selecting Trustees<https://www.internetsociety.org/about-internet-society/governance-policies/procedures-selecting-trustees/> state that, “ISOC will make available a list of all Chapters eligible to vote in an election, indicating which Chapters exercised their voting privilege.” I am pleased to share that list with you (attached to this email).



ORGANIZATION MEMBERS

In the Organization Members election there were three (3) candidates for two (2) seats. Having received the highest weighted vote counts, Barry Leiba and Sagarika Wickramasekera have been elected to a 3-year term each as trustees.



Voter turn-out in the Organization Members election was 61.84%. Of the 76 eligible Organization Members, 47 voted.



Please join me in congratulating the successful candidates and thanking all who ran. I also wish to thank all voters, members of the Elections Committee, and ISOC staff who supported the elections process.



Election challenges may be lodged between now and 15:00 UTC on 14 April by email to the Internet Society President Sally Wentworth at the address election-challenge at isoc.org<mailto:election-challenge at isoc.org>. Any such challenges must include an explanation 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 21 April.



Again, thanks to all who participated in the 2025 Board of Trustees elections.



Best regards,

Ramanou Biaou
