Thank you Amy for all the work you are putting into this. I received the invitation successfully and voted as soon as it arrived. Three thingies that occured to me:

  • Hopefully there is a way to ensure that those registered with two email accounts vote only once?
  • I wonder as well if there is a minimum % of votes we would be asking for in order for the decision to count-- what if a non-representative minority votes? Maybe voting (assuming all members do recveive a link to vote) should be a condition to be a member, if you ask me... ;)
  • I can't recall if there was one but in retrospect, maybe an option for "none of the above" would have been good so those feeling they prefer to abstain had an option for their vote to be counted.

Just thinking out loud... maybe to consider in the future...

Carry on...

All the best and many thanks

Ernesto

Hi,

I have checked the ballot bin invites and it marks both Peter and Tunde as successfully invited. Because of the way ballot bin is set up I cannot resend a invitation to the original email. Instead, I think the best solution is for those who have not received the invitation to provide an alternative email. I will add the new email to the invitation list and resend the voting link. To accommodate this, I will extend voting through Thursday, December 14 at midnight GMT.

For those that have not received an invitation, please contact me directly with an alternative email. I will cross check against the received ballots so we don’t have double voting and then send an invitation to the new address.

Best,

Amy
