Pirate Council Nominations Close Next Week

We are electing our Pirate Council in November. Positions include Captain, First Officer, Quartermaster, PR/Media Director, Activism Director, Swarmwise Director, Web/Info Director, three Arbitrators and two representatives to the US Pirate Party.

Nominations are now open on-line until end of day on Tuesday, November 8th.

Ballots will be sent out by November 15th and are due back by November 22nd. We will use the same voting mechanism we used in our previous election. Voters will be emailed a randomly generated id that only the voter will know. Once the election is done, we will delete the ids. In this way, we can ensure that only supporters can vote, while also maintaining the secrecy of votes.

If you are interested in throwing your hat in for any of these positions, please tell us below. We advise you to become a memberjoin our activists email list, as well as read our Articles of Agreement and Code of Conduct. We also have IRC meetings Thursday night every week 9-10pm. There are sign on details on the side bar.

We look forward to multiple candidates for all positions.
