Thanks Abbas, for the timely update, that only happens when working with able and well versed person like you ,am using my kidogo time to scrutinize the regulations i also urge other members to spare sometime n do the same ,just realized that issue of posting /sending candidates bios to the Wiki is actually entrenched in our by laws,to echo Grace's opinion it will be in order for us to on work setting out a specific date for election and communicating the same ,Meanwhile the 11th meeting will be an important platform for you to elaborate on the election process in accordance with the by laws ,elect the moderators and set the stage for the election,thats my opinion.

Branton,
plus counting the vote results.
Just so we're clear, I am not the one who called for an election this Saturday. The elections item has been put up on the agenda on the
etherpad
that Stephen made. My role is merely elaborating the election process
and
ensuring that they are in line with our bylaws. _When_ it actually takes place is beyond my scope.

@ Abbas , as per procedural approach outlined above,the moderator ought
to
among other things call for nominations ,publicize the elections, do Q
& A
session with the candidates ,this to me sounds like we have enormous
task
ahead if you actually do it in one sitting thats better , but i honestly have my reservations !if the elections are scheduled for this Sato my candidature stands withdrawn ,so lets have other members willing to play the reff.

Branton,
Thank you for expressing your interest in the Moderator position.
However,
since the voting will _probably_ be at this weekend's meetup[1], it will be imperative for the moderators to be present and oversee the voting.
--Abbas.
[1] I hugely emphasise on the word ''probably'' since we have quite a short timeline, if the voting is to take place this Saturday.

,Having read and understood the elections details from the link
posted
by Abbas , the rules and regulations therein, with full knowledge of what the Board members mean to the future of WMKE Chapter ,with no specific interests in the Board member position , i would like to offer myself to the position of The election moderator. I promise to be fair , impartial and above reproach , together we want to deliver uncontested election guided by rules and regulations in our Chapter constitution ,

Thanks Abbas for taking this up.
So the next hurdle is figuring out a Moderator and his Deputy? Any applicants?
Who are up for nominations for the Board?
