               2026 FTSC standing member election, call for votes   
               ==================================================   
      
   Voting for FTSC standing members commences on Saturday, 21 February,   
   2026, 20:00 UTC.   
      
   All RCs are entitled to vote. Each voter may cast one "yes"   
   or one "no" vote for each candidate. Voters need not vote for all   
   candidates, a non vote will be regarded as "abstain" for that   
   candidate.   
   Candidates must receive more "yes" than "no" votes to be elected.   
      
   Although not required, voters are encouraged to consult their   
   constituency before casting their votes.  Debate with the candidates   
   is also encouraged.  No need to hurry.   
      
   No revisions to ballots will be accepted.  Voters are urged to   
   consider their choices carefully, as they cannot be changed once   
   submitted.   
      
   Voting ends on Saturday, 14 March 2026, 20:00 UTC.   
      
   The status of RC's will be determined by NODELIST.023 of this year   
   by the list as issued by the ZC in the zone where they reside.   
      
   This is the list of nominees.   
      
     Candidate             Node nr.      Nmntd by    Accepted   
      
   Rob Swindell            1:103/705     RC33        Yes   
      
   Voters are requested to copy and paste the form below, mark a   
   cross for each candidate in the "yes" or the "no" column for all   
   candidates they wish to cast a vote for and post it in FTSC_PUBLIC   
   addressed to "Election Coordinator with a subject of "Vote".  It is   
   recommended that all voters forward a copy of their ballot to the   
   Election Coordinator via NetMail, to ensure that EchoMail delays or   
   topology issues do not cause lost or late ballots.   
      
      
   Once again, voters need not vote for all candidates.
