Dear ICGI members,
Tomorrow (March 16) will be the end of the 30 day period for the ICGI 2015 election. At present, only 40% (307 of 767) of members have voted, so that it is very unlikely that we will reach 50% by the end of tomorrow.
Per our bylaws, we will therefore extend the election for two weeks, to the end of the day on March 29. Also per our bylaws, balloting will close after March 29, regardless of the % of the membership that has voted.
Please exercise your most important right and responsibility -- vote!
Thanks,
Tianzhen Zhang, Chair
