The links to Andrew Wafaa's 'announcement' and 'platform' seem to be wrong.  They link to the poll itself. Hello

They are not wrong, just not filled - announcement was sent to non- public mailing list and platform is yet to be filled.

Hello

It is my pleasure to announce that voting for openSUSE board [0] has begun [2] - so please don't forget to cast your vote at:

http://bit.ly/2jYi5xt [1]

done, but I noticed each line of the poll is doubled (two copies of each line)

It seems this poll has problems as well - I noticed that Aaron Luna is listed 4 times, Sarah is listed 3, and the others are listed once. I'd like some clarification as to why this is (or ask that the poll be recreated again with each candidate listed once) so it's really clear who's getting the votes and easy to evaluate the results when it's over. -- Jim Henderson Please keep on-topic replies on the list so everyone benefits -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner@opensuse.org

All five names are repeated, twice.

Same here. I too tried to find platforms without logging in first and could not. On opening https://connect.opensuse.org/pg/polls/read/pluskalm/52970/opensuse-board-ele... with a virgin Firefox profile I applied five Ctrl-+es, all necessary to be able to read comfortably with my browser's default text size. As none of those platform links link to opensuse.org pages, which would lead to Firefox applying the (remembered) zoom level just applied, six of the other eight links lead to more mousetype[1] pages, while the other two are only somewhat better, requiring three rather than five zoom increments. Andrew's platform links on https://connect.opensuse.org/pg/polls/read/pluskalm/52970/opensuse-board-ele... do not lead to anything that looks like a platform. https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Board_election_rules , the "full" election rules from the first paragraph on https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Board_election#Phase_2:_Election says the next election will take place at the end of 2013. http://bit.ly/2jYi5xt looks like a spammer URL.

No, it doesn't. I was told to go to:

https://connect.opensuse.org/pg/polls/read/pluskalm/52970/opensuse-board-ele ction-20162017

where it says (loaded yesterday night):

«Welcome to the election of the 2017 openSUSE board. The board consists of one appointed chairperson and 5 elected members who may serve up to 2 consecutive terms on the board.

To clarify - Each openSUSE member has TWO VOTES they can use for this election

Note that no single organization or company can control more than 40 percent of the electable board seats (more than 2 seats). Please read the full description of the election process.»

Notice that the words "two seats" is not there. I reload the page and now it says:

I don't know of any democracy where you can cast as many votes as positions/seats are available. (Doesn't need to be a nation, also applies to much smaller organizations like the size of opensuse)

P.S.: I'm following this discussion as outsider, I'm not involved in the process on either side.

It's how the board elections have always been done in the past. The number of votes is the same as the number of open seats, and the only time we've voted for the entire board was the first time - the terms have never all expired at the same time.
