<font face="Calibri, Verdana, Helvetica, Arial"><span
style="font-size: 11pt;">There are a few good things about this
election. Firstly, a quality field of candidates. That indicates good
interest in participation. <br>
<br>
Let’s also note that 138 people affirmed membership and voted. The
previous highest number of voters in any election was 100. So it is
good to see that the level of participation is growing. That bodes well
for the future.<br>
<br>
And congratulations to Jeremy! As the outgoing co ordinator I will be
very happy to assist and support if need be, but I am confident that
Ginger and Jeremy will do a great job and IGC can look forward to
further growth in the coming year under their leadership. I wish the
new team well.<br>
<br>

<b>Subject: </b>[governance] Co-coordinator Election Results<br>
<br>
</span></font><span style="font-size: 11pt;"><font face="Arial">Hi
everyone,<br>
As our voting coordinator, Derrick Cogburn, is traveling, I am happy to
announce the results of the IGC co-coordinator election for the
co-coordinator to replace outgoing co-coordinator Ian Peter.<br>
<br>
The results are as follows, and shown in Derrick's attached graph. For
the record and future reference, we are investigating further a small
number of cases where the same IP address was used more than once in
voting. However, there could be legitimate reasons for that (i.e. the
same computer used by several colleagues). In any case, if there are
irregularities these would only affect the final vote numbers for
individual candidates, but not the final result of the election.<br>
<br>
Voters who accepted the IGC charter, and participated in the process:
138 members.<br>
Total Votes Cast for Co-coordinator: 131<br>
<br>
Jeremy Malcolm 45<br>
Tim McGinnis 36<br>
Fouad Bajwa 34<br>
Rafik Dammak 11<br>
None of the Above 5<br>
<br>
Total Votes Cast 131<br>
<br>
Congratulations and great appreciation to all four candidates. I
appreciate your willingness to run and to serve.<br>
<br>
I look forward to working with Jeremy--I'm sure we will have a
productive year!<br>
<br>
Special thanks to Derrick for once again undertaking this complex task
at a very busy time of year.<br>
<br>
Best wishes for the Winter/Summer holidays, <br>
Ginger Paque<br>
IGC Co-coordinator<br>
