Re: [ga] Request for a Clarifying Vote

["James Love" <james.love@cptech.org>]

We should probably have a GA vote on different possible consensus positions
on the issue of elections.

1.   Is there support in the GA for having an At large election system to
put people on the board of directors.
2.   Should the ICANN board control (a) the nominations or (b) the elections
to the ICANN board.

Others may have different suggestions of how to do this.   We may more may
not have a consensus on 1 or 2.  But we should find out.
