What Does This Mean for Delegates?
Reviewers will be elected via approval voting in Special Voting Cycle # 16 b. Approval voting is a mechanism that allows each delegate to vote for as many nominees as they choose with equal voting power. The nominees with the highest percentage of approval votes will be elected to the Council. Please note this policy in the Code of Conduct 12 :
In the case of approval/ranked choice elections, delegates may vote for themselves, so long as they also cast votes for the remaining elected positions.
