Is it too late to nominate Tod for board member, since the voting process is
not working yet anyway and we need two more members? If not, I nominate him.
He told me he would accept. He has run before.

I haven't looked at the Grex bylaws recently, but I presume there is some
mechanism for filling vacancies. There will now be two vacancies for the
Board to fill. This will be simpler than restarting the voting - which, in
fact, is not provided for the the bylaws.

The voting process IS working. I don't know why anyone would think it
isn't.
We'll need a special election, I expect, unless we want to interrupt
the voting. The bylaws provide for filling vacancies in the Board
via special election.
BTW, this is the nominations item, not the "justify an SSL certificate"
or "complain about why our SSL certificate has expired" item.

Tod, do you accept this belated nomination?
If so, we can discuss what to do about it in re the current election.

Thanks, Tod. I hope we can get you on the ballot for this election.
I'm checking with our vote admin. It won't affect the election of
anyone else since we have four slots open.

We'll call this nominations item closed as of Nov. 30, 2013 and set up a
separate nominations item for a special election for the two remaining
seats. I wish the people who are so critical of things here would do
the right thing, which is to help with Grex, but alas, criticizing is
easy, helping with the operation of Grex is not.

Ignore them. It's time. Past time, actually.

Okay, I'm checking with the vote admin to see if we can get another
candidate added. This would help us quite a bit.

I've entered a new nominations item, coop 344, so we can continue
there. We will need to do a special election in any event.

I've made an unofficial, provisional count of the votes in the regular
election for the Board of Directors for 2014. Six people voted. Five voted
for both candidates, and one voted for only one candidate. So if any of the
five who voted for both are members, and the candidates are members, then the
two candidates were elected.
The Treasurer has not provided a list of the members as of the end of the
voting period, so I cannot make an official count.

Of the members, one voted in this election. Unfortunately, one of the
candidates, glitch, was not a member at the time of the election and so was
not eligible to run. The one member who voted did vote for kentn, so Kent is
elected to a two year term, which started on January 1, 2014.

Thanks for doing the counting, gelinas. Time to organize
another special election.

Thanks for running for election, Kent. Strange to have an election with as
many voters as candidates.

You're welcome. There were a lot of membership expirations toward the end
of the year, and then a lot of renewals in January, as I understand the
situation.
