The rules for the Council election as well as details on how to vote for |
39 |
this election are available in the Council Elections Archives[1]. In any |
40 |
case, here is the quick procedure on how to vote using votify: |
41 |
|
42 |
* If you're eligible to vote in this election, log in to |
43 |
dev.gentoo.org |
44 |
* Type votify --new council-201206 to create a new ballot file |
45 |
* Edit .ballot-council-201206 file in your home directory and rank |
46 |
the candidates |
47 |
* Once you're finished, use votify --verify council-201206 command |
48 |
to verify the validity of your ballot file |
49 |
* If everything is okay, use votify --submit council-201206 to |
50 |
submit your vote. Don't forget your vote doesn't count until you |
51 |
submit it. |
52 |
* If you run into problems, you can either work them out yourself |
53 |
using votify --help or contact election officials and ask them for help |
54 |
|
55 |
The elections for the Council include the pseudo _reopen_nominations |
56 |
candidate. If the pseudo-candidate '_reopen_nominations' appears in |
57 |
7th place or higher those candidates that rank above |
58 |
'_reopen_nominations' will be the current council. A second period of |
59 |
election will be opened for the remaining council seats. No third |
60 |
period of election will be opened in the event '_repoen_nominations' |
61 |
ranks higher than the candidates necessary to fill the council[2]. In |
62 |
case there's a need to fill a seat during the council term due to a |
63 |
retirement, a new election must be held to fill that seat. |
