== Additional election result details ==

Out of 246 registered members, 64 individuals voted. In contrast, last
year's elections saw 79 voters, and 63 votes were cast in the 2009
election.

A graph of the Borda Count[2] (which assigns points to each ranking) is
available at <http://selectricity.org/graph/borda_bar/1969/graph.png>,
and the percentage of first-place voting is available at
<http://selectricity.org/graph/plurality_pie/1969/graph.png>.

Fortunately there was no tie in the top three spots. However, policy on
resolving such a tie should be established before the next election
season begins.

Sugar Labs would like to thank Mel Chua and Bernie Innocenti for their
service on the Board. Congratulations to the new and returning SLOBs!
