[atlarge-discuss] Point of personal privilege -- I'm being disenfranchised byglitches in the system!
Dear all,
I'm sorry to inflict this on you but I don't know what else to do.
I never got a ballot and when I inquired, was told by both Elisabeth Porteneuve and Alexander Svensson (one of the election watchdogs) that I am not a member of ICANN At Large. Since I have in fact been a member since July 2000, I found that quite distressing.
However, I went through my archives and dug out the original messages from ICANN which confirm my status as a member, assuming that these would be sufficient for the Powers That Be to look into the matter and perhaps even send me a ballot in time.
Unfortunately, I was then very distressed to receive the information that my messages to both of them could not be delivered to their destinations. Since time is of the essence, I hope you'll forgive me for taking up your bardwidth in my efforts to reach somebody who can do something about the mix-up before the polls close.
Thank you!
Judyth

Dear Alexander,
Evidently there has been some mistake in the compilation of your membership list. I am sending you a "cc" of my message to Elizabeth Porteneuve in which I have copied the proof that I was indeed a registered member prior to the first At Large election in 2000.
I hope that will be sufficient to clear the matter up and get me my ballot before the voting closes.
Regards,
Judyth

Below you will find a copy of the confirmation message sent to me on 30 July 2000 following my registration as a member of ICANN At Large. It contains both my membership number and password, as well as the full Internet headers which will enable you to confirm its authenticity. I also quote the message of 1 September 2000 which was sent to "Activated Members" so you can confirm that I did indeed activate my membership as required, and the 9 October 2000 final reminder to vote in the first election. I did, in fact, vote in that election and receive the notice of results but my e-mail archiving leaves something to be desired and I have not yet found the disk containing the later messages.
Neither my name nor my e-mail address has changed since that time, nor have I resigned as a member of ICANN At Large, so it is a mystery to me why my name does not appear on your electoral roll.
Would you kindly research this matter without delay since the deadline for voting is tomorrow? I would prefer not to be disenfranchised by a clerical error.
Thanking you in advance for your co-operation,
Judyth Mermelstein
