I think, I did not get my ballot on time? I did have problems with my

Even if ALL 13 were large organisations under the NCSG charter (which they aren't by NPOCs count), and thus entitled to 4 votes each, that would make a difference of 13x4 = 52 votes, which at most could bring Nuno or Debra to 83 votes- which would still be less than Rafiks 88 votes, so would not change the result?

I ask any concerned voter to check the files indicate below to confirm their ballot and to bring up any issues concerning balloting or weighting of their vote. In order for the vote to remain private, I ask that any questions about their private vote be addressed directly with the GNSO Secretariat<[log in to unmask]> who ran the ballot. Do Not Send a copy of your ballot receipt to this list unless you wish to announce your vote to the entire community. Do Not Send a copy of your ballot to me - I do not wish to know how people voted.

It is my intention to announce the verified results at the NCSG Constituency Day meeting in Dakar on Tuesday 25 October 2011. The new chair will take over as chair of meeting at that point while the new GNSO Council members will take their seats at the end of the Dakar meeting.
