I really don't see the point in asking.  Other constituencies will 
likely see it as wasting time (and ask why we didn't ask our 
questions during the period for asking questions...). It will prevent 
someone from taking up their seat for the Marrakech meeting which 
would put them at a disadvantage for months.

If our council reps have any doubts about who to vote for then make a 
decision based on candidate's past positions, have they been for and 
against NCUC positions in the past:
Phil Sheppard has a long and distinguished record of service to the 
GNSO: has he been consistently pro or anti positions of this 
constituency?
Rita Rodin's record is perhaps less well known, but I believe some 
NCUC members have worked with her on a few committees, no?  And her 
answers to the questions both written on the MP3 transcript, in 
balance where is she in terms of pro/anti NCUC positions?

I don't follow the GNSO closely enough to be sure, but I favor Rita.
