> subscribers who had moved and so had inactive email accounts. We had to
> clean these as well. We also noted that there were some who were subscribe
> to the mailing list but did not have IGC accounts by registering on the
> site. We received feedback from some of the subscribers that they did not
> get ballot papers. The estimated number of subscribers to the mailing list
> is around 600. The estimated number of account holders who are both
> subscribed to the mailing list and have IGC accounts is around 400. The
> number of people who voted was 276. During the elections, we received “Out
> of Office” responses from a few.

>  Following last year’s elections and from feedback from the community,
