===== Voting =====

==== Round One ====
There are four people who have thrown the hat in the ring: Ben Ramsey, Gabriel Caruso, Joe Ferguson, and Sara Golemon — with 4 people, we'll do ranked voting, so can vote **four** times, but make sure you select each candidate only once.

Selection works following [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single_transferable_vote#Example|STV]]

Voting ends at **April 21st, at 16:00 UTC+1**.
