CIDOC Board 2016-2019: election

The following candidates have been duly proposed for election to the CIDOC Board for the period 2016-2019. The country of each candidate is noted, because a maximum of two Board members can come from any one country.

Name	Position	Proposer	Seconder	Country
Monika Hagedorn-Saupe	Chair	Gordon McKenna	Martina Krug	Germany
Dominik Remondino	Treasurer	Monika Hagedorn-Saupe	Martina Krug	Switzerland
Gabriel Moore Forell Bevilacqua	Vice Chair	Regine Stein	Walter Koch	Brazil
Susanne Nickel	Vice Chair/ Secretary	Maija Ekosaari	Jonathan Whitson Cloud	Sweden
Trilce Navarrete	Secretary	Monika Hagedorn-Saupe	Dominik Remondino	USA
Emmanuelle Delmas-Glass	Editor	Richard Light	Maija Ekosaari	USA
Kaie Jeeser	Ordinary member	Monika Hagedorn-Saupe	Terry Nyambe	Estonia
Gordon McKenna	Ordinary member	Monika Hagedorn-Saupe	Jonathan Whitson Cloud	United Kingdom
Jan Behrendt	Ordinary member	Nicholas Crofts	Monika Hagedorn-Saupe	Germany
Alexandre Manuel Ribeiro Matos	Ordinary member	Gabriel Bevilacqua	Fernando Cabral	Portugal
Syuzanna Khojamiryan	Ordinary member	Nicholas Crofts	Gloriana Amador Aguero	Armenia

Since there is only one candidate for Chair, Treasurer, and Editor, I declare the following to be elected to these posts:

Chair:                  Monika Hagendorn-Saupe
Treasurer:           Dominik Remondino
Editor:                 Emmanuelle Delmas-Glass

There are two candidates for the two posts of Vice Chair and Secretary. Susanne Nickel is a candidate for both roles. In the event that Susanne receives more votes for both posts, she will have to decide which post to accept, and the remaining candidate for the other role will be offered that post.

This leaves five candidates for the four Ordinary Member posts. 

Supporting statements for all the candidates taking part in elections are given here

We have set up an online voting system using Google Forms.  Please go to the URL http://bit.ly/1NZfECz and register your choice for Secretary/Vice Chair, and for the four Ordinary Member candidates you prefer.  You will need to quote your ICOM membership number as evidence of your entitlement to vote in this election. In order for your vote to be accepted, you have to be registered as a voting member for CIDOC (an individual member or a named representative of an institutional member). You must register your vote by the deadline of 23:59 UTC on 31 May 2016.
