Re: [ga] Verification of Endorsement

[Jeff Williams <jwkckid1@ix.netcom.com>]

Kristy and all,

  But you also have to admit that this look a bit fishy to say the least.
Not to mention that ICANN has still not gotten all of the PIN's
out yet by their own admission and about 70% of the At-Large
Applicants cannot even participate.  This whole election should be
postponed until a independent audit can be done IMHO....

  It also looks like ICANN did not test their software out very well
indicating that their ability to manage anything technical is problematic
at best...
