How does LACRALO elect representatives to serve on ALAC?

1. A call for candidates from LACRALO to serve on the ALAC is posted on the LACRALO mailing list and website. A deadline for the submission of nominations to serve on ALAC is specified in the announcement. Also specified are the eligibility requirements for prospective candidates (candidates cannot be from the same ALS or country as the other serving ALAC members from the LAC region).
2. During the call for candidates to serve on ALAC, a member of an ALS in LACRALO may offer him or her self as a ALAC candidate and/or nominate another ALS member to be a ALAC candidate. ALS representatives can also second such nominations. Nominated candidates to ALAC are expected to confirm whether he or she is willing to stand as a candidate.
3. After the close of the call for candidates, the secretariat confirms with the nominees that they have accepted their nomination and presents the final list of candidates on the LACRALO mailing list and on the LACRALO website.
4. The vote to elect a ALAC representative takes place. At the beginning of the voting period, each ALS in LACRALO is emailed specific instructions and a website to go to submit their vote.
5. At the end of the voting period, the votes are tallied as per rule 12.9 of the RoP (each vote is weighted with a country coefficient), and results of the vote is presented to LACRALO and transmitted to the ALAC.
