<p class="MsoNormal">Everyone,<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">As many are aware, EC Elections are upon us, but few are aware of the dangers currently ahead.<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Some of the nominees are attempting to board stack and gain control of the EC.<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I implore you to read my attached document and do your part by contacting the EC with the provided template.<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">By-laws require a very large voter base to enact, but it is possible. Australia and NZ have some of the largest voter block in the APNIC and enough to trigger a by-law change.<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I cannot stress this enough; the danger is very real – at the time of sending this email at least five candidates are either directly endorsed by NRS or the company LARUS.<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">You can review this yourself here: <a href="https://2023.apricot.net/elections/nominations/" target="_blank">

<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Do your part, pass this email, send this template to APNIC members you know and let's garnish the votes necessary to protect our internet and our APNIC.<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thank you,<u></u><u></u></p>
