Voting Report

There were three resolutions to be voted on at the RIPE NCC General Meeting (GM) October 2016.

897 members registered to vote, and 735 members cast their ballots. Not all 735 members cast their ballots on all resolutions to be voted on.

In all items, the abstentions were recorded but did not affect the vote count. A resolution needed a majority of Yes votes or No votes to be either approved or rejected.

The vote count for the resolutions is recorded below.

The original report from BigPulse is also available.

Verifying your vote

All those who voted electronically could choose to receive an email receipt that allows them to verify that their vote was recorded correctly. To verify your vote, you will need to use your browser's search engine to find your receipt. There are fewer voting receipts than total votes because some voters represented more than one member and carried the voting rights for these members.
