No. Four votes per voter, and of that, maximum one vote per
candidate.

Or, put better, one vote per open position per voter, and no
candidate may be considered to be running for more than one open
position simultaneously.

I've just sent email to all the candidates, and to all nominees who
haven't declined, reminding them of deadlines and describing how to
create a "campaign statement" that the vote program will display.

Here's the list of nominees at this point. People who've accepted
are marked with a *. Others have until the end of the day (EST)
on November 30 to accept, which should done via a response in this
item. Before creating the final ballot and opening up the vote
program, I'll check with the treasurer that all the candidates
satisfy the membership requirements.

There do seem to be a bunch of good candidates already. And I do expect
to be fairly busy during the coming year.
On the other hand, I'm not currently serving on any committees or
deliberative bodies. Grex is very important to me. And I do have some
background and skills which may be useful to the board.
So, I'll accept the nomination.

Oops, I inadvertently omitted krj from my list in #136. He was
nominated but hasn't yet accepted or declined (unless I missed it).
So please consider him to be a potential candidate at this point.

Hey, can we sling mud? I need to know in time to get a good pail and
shovel.

The mud-slinging has already begun in a couple of other items.

I noticed. I just wanted official permission first.
Should we all create our own items, or just rely on our statements? I
noticed this seemed to generate a lot of dialogue among users, which I
like to see. Perhaps, once I finish with my statement, I will enter an
item. My platform, of course, is not currently as extensive as Jamie's.

I like the idea of having individual items. And I'm enjoying the
dialog. I'm looking forward to seeing more items here to discuss.
I think this is especially beneficial for the non-AA-ites who have
likely never met any of the candidates. This will let them know the
candidates a little better

Your web site is a carbon copy of David Irving's, and he was beaten. Try
that on for size, bucko.

Final reminder that the Board election starts tomorrow. Today is
the last day for any nominees who haven't yet accepted to do so.
Membership is required in order for a person to appear on the
ballot. Someone is going to check Grex's PO box tomorrow for any
membership payments that may have arrived over the weekend. As
soon as I've been updated on that and have a final list of eligible
candidates, I'll open up the vote program.

resp:147 - Pistols or rhetoric? :p
I was in the middle of getting my statement prepared this weekend, and
now I'm searching for it. Of course, I'm currently at work, so I have
to wait a few hours to put it up. Folks will unfortunately be looking
at the statement from the last time I ran until later tonight. Oi.

The vote program is now open for business.
To run it from a tty connection (dialup/telnet/ssh), type vote at
a Unix shell prompt or !vote from just about any other prompt.
Or you can access the voting facility on the web at the URL
http://cyberspace.org/cgi-bin/pw/voting-booth
The vote program allows you to view the list of candidates and their
campaign statements, and to cast a ballot. If you do the latter and
later change your mind about whom you want to vote for, simply run
the program again and cast a new ballot. Your new votes replace any
previous one.
Any Grex user can cast a ballot, but only the votes of eligible voting
members will be counted in determining the outcome of the election.
Polls close at the end of the day (EST) on December 15.
