We are currently organising the AGM for Wikimedia UK, which will be held on the weekend of 24th - 25th April in London. The AGM will elect a new board of directors and will also vote on various procedural motions, such as setting membership fees and approving the annual report and accounts.
Broadly speaking we would like to run the election in a similar way to last year. [1] That is, we would like to appoint two independent people who will act as tellers who organise the voting by email beforehand and in person at the AGM.
The only criteria for the tellers is that they cannot be candidates for the board themselves and they have to be able to attend the AGM itself.
No previous experience is necessary but if you have run a similar election before that would be useful. All reasonable expenses will be paid.
Could you help out the chapter in this way? If so, please could you email me, with details any relevant prior experience.
Many thanks in advance,
