Hello folks! |
2 |
|
3 |
This is a reminder to everyone that you should vote for the 2011 |
4 |
council election before: |
5 |
|
6 |
July 3rd 23:59:59 UTC* |
7 |
|
8 |
Which means you have today (2nd July, Saturday) and tomorrow (3rd |
9 |
July, Sunday) to vote. A total of 48hrs. Don't wait for Monday because |
10 |
the voting period will be over by then! |
11 |
|
12 |
The current turnout is just 31%, which is lower than last year, so |
13 |
please go and vote! People are highly recommended to nag eligible |
14 |
voters to vote. :-) |
15 |
|
16 |
Voting instructions can be found in the motd of your home directory on |
17 |
dev.gentoo.org. See `votify --help` for more details. The current |
18 |
election is "council-201106". "_reopen_nominations" is being used in |
19 |
the current election, which can be treated like any other candidate. |
20 |
|
21 |
Looking forward to seeing a good turnout! |
22 |
|
23 |
On behalf of the election officials, |
