Hello,
As of now, 13 of 42 eligible organizations have voted in the 2016 chapters' election for 2 of 10 Wikimedia Foundation seats on the board of trustees. In the last election, 1/3 of organizations did not vote. Anyone who wishes to influence the election could do so by asking sleepier chapters to vote by the May 7 end of election.
Feel free also to pressure more active chapters to do their duty to support less organized chapters in voting. Support can mean having chapter-to-chapter encouragement to vote. All chapters appreciate being reminded. All eligible organizations are supposed to vote. The election result is more sound with more votes.
