> Calls for expressions of interest or nominations were made on the IGC
>> mailing list in June, 2013.By December 31st, 2013 both positions were

>> 3) Mawaki Chango
>>
>> 4) Mwendwa Kivuva
>>
>>
>>
>> Prior to holding the elections, Mwendwa Kivuva withdrew leaving only
>> three remaining candidates. Prior to hosting the elections and preparing
>> ballot papers, we had to verify and check our subscriber database to ensure
>> that things were in order prior to sending the ballot papers. There were
>> some 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,
>> this year we introduced the abstention category allowing people to not
>> select a candidate. To all those who exercised their right to vote or to
>> abstain, thank you. Special thanks to ALL the amazing candidates who
>> participated. Special thanks to Imran Ahmed Shah for his continuous
>> commitment to make a difference in his community in Pakistan and also in
>> global forums.
>>
>>
>>  Congratulations to Deirdre Williams who will serve the two year term
>> replacing me. Congratulations to Mawaki Chango who will serve the one year
>> term replacing Norbert Bollow. I am pleased to *formally hand over* and
>> now declare the elections closed. To the new coordinators, I wish you
>> wisdom, good energy, strength as you navigate the waters ahead.
