[NCSG-PC] GNSO Chair election

[Rafik Dammak]

Hi,

for the record, as I was nominated by Ayden a few weeks ago in PC list  I
am also interested to be nominated by NCPH to run for GNSO chair election.
I am looking forward NCSG to support my candidature and suggest it to CSG
during the house nomination process.

Best,

Rafik

> Background:
>
> The rules say that each house will be allowed to nominate
> one candidate. Meaning we'd have to agree with CSG.
> And we'd have to find a candidate the other house will
> also accept.
>
> Time is short. We really should open talks with CSG now.
>
> And if we want one of ours to run for Chair, we'd also
> need to talk with CPH at the same time.
>
> Chair needs 60% supermajority in the council to be elected.
> My math says that works out to 16 councillors, when CPH
> and NCPH both have 13 (6 per constituency plus two NCAs).
>
> Eligible for nomination are all new councillors, including
> all NCAs (even non-voting NCA).
>
> For more details cf. 2.2 in GNSO Operating Procedures.
>
> And as you may recall, if CSG gets the Chair we'll get Vice Chair, as
> per the procedure we agreed on.
>
> I haven't heard anything from CSG after Jo'burg, but there I got
> the impression they'd be likely to offer Heather Forrest.
> Note that if she's elected she could only serve one year,
> as she's term-limited as councillor.
