Election of December 2016: Nominations

1: Nominees should acknowledge the nomination by signing next to their name.

2: Nominees should accept or decline their nomination and move their name to the right section.

3: When nominating somebody else, it is considerate to inform them so that they don't miss the opportunity to accept the nomination.

4: There are no rules against self nomination.

5: The campaigns propaganda and misinformation supplied by our lovely candidates may be found here, if anyone bothers to post any.

We will be electing 6 moderators and 2 alternates via Single Transferable Vote. The mods are the 1st-6th highest-ranked candidates of the STV vote. The alternates are the 7th and 8th highest-ranked candidates of the STV vote.

We would like to have at least 1 non-candidate OpenSTV reader. It's really easy -- you need only dedicate 1 hour of time on 07/08 January 2017.
