It was on April 17, a day early, that the Call for Candidates went out.
Today (April 17) is the first day to declare your candidacy for the offices of Representative Assembly (RA) and Chancellor. These are very important offices for our CDS Community. When we elect these representatives we are electing friends and neighbors to work on our behalf to set the direction of our community, enact our laws and regulations, and manage all the tasks that keep the CDS a wonderful place to live. Now is your time to participate and declare candidacy.
So far, one person, Almut Brunswick, has declared his intention to run. More will certainly follow in the next ten days.
In contrast to many real-life elections, the CDS elections have remained largely drama-free for some years.
Stay tuned for more information.
