*Important* NCSG 2016 Annual Elections - voting has started

[Klaus Stoll]

Dear Amr

I thought I explained this several times today and did not want to 
repeat myself. I am not against the use of nota, I am against the use of 
nota in order to prevent a candidate that is on the ballot. I can feel 
your pain but as long as we keep having this kind of discussions like 
today, people will think twice if they put themselves up as a candidate. 
What we need is fundamental charter changes and fundamental changes in 
our culture of working together.

In fact, I believe that the changes being suggested now conflict with the charter, because the EC hasn’t approved the procedures being introduced during this election cycle. I do not believe that it is right or in the best interest of the NCSG for us to wait until after the elections to challenge this.
