What Does This Mean for Delegates?
Reviewers will be elected via approval voting in Special Voting Cycle #31b (January 9th - 15th) (full details in the Season 7 Reflection Period Guide). Approval voting is a mechanism that allows each delegate to vote for as many nominees as they choose with equal voting power. The nominees with the highest percentage of approval votes will be elected to the Council. Please note this policy in Optimist Expectations:
In the case of approval/ranked choice elections, delegates may vote for themselves, so long as they also cast votes for the remaining elected positions.
Example: I can vote for my own candidacy on the Final Reviewer team of the Grants Council, so long as I also cast 3 additional votes (a total of 4 votes, as there are 4 open positions on this team.)
Please note the above outlined voting mechanism is subject to change depending on Council structure and number of eligible candidates.
Please note: All of the contributor roles and associated rewards described here are intended for independent and engaged community members who volunteer to provide their knowledge and expertise to the Collective and receive an honorarium in the form of OP. These volunteers are not employees of the Collective, the Foundation, or any of its affiliates for any purpose.
