Thank you John! I suppose the impetus behind my original question was to encourage everyone reading this thread to examine the slate of candidates and vote. If I'm reading this right it appears that approximately 8 percent of eligible voters cast a vote for the 2020 Board of Trustees election. I've been going through the periodic ARIN election related emails and expect to put some more time into it this weekend. On Thu, Oct 19, 2023 at 9:08 PM John Curran <jcurran@arin.net> wrote:

Does anyone have general statistics on:

a) Number of eligible voting org IDs

b) Percentage of eligible voting org IDs which actually cast ballots in previous ARIN elections

That’s an interesting question to ask over here on nanog’s mailing list, but anyway here goes -
