The NCSG annual election results are back and attached to this email.

Congrats to the new NCSG Chair Tapani Tarvainen   and to the NCSG's 3 elected GNSO Councillors: Stefania Milan (2 years term), Amr Elsadr(2 years term) and Marilia Maciel (2 year term). 

A deep thanks to the other candidates, the nominators, and everyone who checked-in, voted in the election.  And also we couldn't have held the election without the tireless assistance of our admin support Maryam Bakoshi and  Glen de Saint Gery from ICANN staff . Special thanks to our departing councillor for her work and representing NCSG within the GNSO council, Avri Doria.

I am really happy that we got a record turnout this time with 233 ballots casted .

The term for these positions begins at the conclusion of the ICANN meeting 54 in Dublin

 Voters can check their individual ballot ID against the list of votes cast (attached) to verify that their vote was counted correctly.

Finally, all election details are summarized in this page https://community.icann.org/display/gnsononcomstake/Elections-2015

if you have any question please feel free to ask me.

Best Regards,

Rafik Dammak

NCSG chair (for few weeks)
