[[-- Translated text (en -> es) --]] Vanda, Había enviado un mensaje pidiendo a los oficiales de RALO que me avisaran si querían una votación dirigida. De acuerdo con el Reglamento, dichas votaciones dirigidas deben solicitarse formalmente mediante votación de la RALO. Lleva tiempo establecer la votación (que clasifica a los candidatos para que el Presidente pueda emitir votos en todas las rondas de la elección). Para ser claros, una votación que decide dirigir, y Luego una votación de varios candidatos instruyendo al Presidente. Nadie respondió de LACRALO. No sé si hay tiempo suficiente para que el personal realice esas dos tareas. vota ahora Alan El lunes 9 de febrero de 2026 a las 15:24, Vanda Scartezini via lac-discuss-en < lac-discuss-en@icann.org> escribió:

Hi friends. Per ALAN’s email below, looks like LACRALO did not agree to have ALS votes for seat 15?? I have understood just the opposite!!!: That Members will vote, and then the Chair will get the winner's name and vote on our behalf. NOW, the only alternative is to have, among us, an informal vote on the candidates and ask the chair to take the winners’ name and vote on our behalf. I would like to have this issue on the agenda today. *From: *Alan Greenberg via Secretariat <secretariat@icann.org> *Date: *Monday, 9 February 2026 at 15:06 *To: *secretariat@icann.org <secretariat@icann.org> *Subject: *[Secretariat] Re: Board Seat Election - RALO Chair votes

I note that, as of the deadline last Friday, no RALO Chairs have indicated that their vote in the Seat 15 selection will be Directed, so no votes of the ALSes and Individual Members will be necessary.

To RALO Leadership,

As you know, the final slate of candidates for the position of Director Selected by the At-Large Community has been posted. The *Candidate Expressions of Interest <https://icann-community.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/ABMS/pages/760020998/2025-2026+Seat+15+Candidate+Expressions+of+Interest>* and *Candidate Statements <https://icann-community.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/ABMS/pages/770211889/2025-2026+At-Large+Seat+15+Candidate+Statement+Workspace>* have been posted and questions posed by the community will be posted shortly.

There will be a meeting with the candidates at 18:00 UTC on Thursday, 12 February 2026.

The electorate will be the 15 ALAC Members (with a replacement named for Justine) plus the 5 RALO Chairs. All electors may informally consult with their RALOs, but the ALAC Members (or their replacements) MUST vote according to their own beliefs. RALO Chairs MAY vote according to the direction of their RALO.

In order for a RALO Chair to exercise a Directed Vote, there needs to be:

1. A formal vote of the RALO (ALSes and Individual Members) confirming that the Chair will take a directed vote. 2. A formal vote of the RALO specifying who the Chair should vote for.

Staff is geared up to carry out such votes if the Chair indicates this intent.

Please note that if your RALO is to direct the vote of the Chair, it is VERY IMPORTANT that the RALO ALSes and Individual Members study the Candidate documents and attend the Candidate Meeting.

If you intend to ask your RALO for permission to take a directed vote, you need to inform me and At-Large staff no later than 23:59 UTC on Friday, 06 February 2026. The vote of the RALO to ratify this decision will be run the following week.

A vote of the RALO to decide on how the Chair should vote will take place immediately following the Candidate meeting.

Alan

Chair, Board Member Selection Process Committee
