Elections Guide

Eligible voters are determined by their Fedora Account System (FAS) membership.

Visit the Elections App and select the election box you would like to vote in. You may vote in all of the elections if you wish, but you may only vote in each election box once, i.e. you may vote in Council, FESCo and EPEL but you may only vote in each group once and not multiple times. Click on the ‘vote now’ button on the elections box page and select the range you wish to place against each candidate running. It is advisable to allocate a number to each candidate based on your preference.

You will be asked to preview your score, and once you are happy, press the ‘Submit your vote’ button. Then you are done, and don’t forget to claim your ‘I Voted!’ Fedora badge too!

Fedora Project has implemented Range Voting for our elections, in particular the "Range (score-summing, blanks treated as zero score, no quorum rule)" range voting system.

To cast your vote in this election simply select a value between 0 and 3 with 0 as 'least or no preference' and 3 as 'highest preference'.

At the end of the election, the highest ranking candidate(s) are marked as the winners.
