NCSG Elections

Fri May 31 11:55:04 EEST 2019

Dear Stephanie and all,

First of all, thanks for accepting the nomination for another term, Steph!
I do believe that NCSG still has a lot to achieve under your leadership, so
I am more than happy to read about your plans for running again.

I do also happen to support the same candidates for the GNSO Council,
Tatiana and Ayden have been the absolute champions in the most diverse
topics and tireless contributions to PDPs as well to our Stakeholder Group
and Constituencies.  I do learn a lot from all of you, pretty much on a
daily basis, and would like to see such strong volunteers to this community
to continue their engagement with NCSGs mission. Additionally, I would also
like to support Farell Folly's nomination to the council. I guess that by
now Farell has definitely proven his value to this community with very
insightful contributions to Public Comments, as one of the NCUC appointees
to the Policy Committee and also with representing absent council members.

Last but not least: Thank you for the kind words, Steph!

Wishing good luck to all candidates!

Cheers,
Bruna Santos
