Subject: Final election Results<br>
<div><div></div><div class="h5"><br>
To the NCSG membership:<br>
<br>
The final results of the election are provided below.<br>
<br>
There were no issues raised regarding the vote registered with the GNSO<br>
Secretariat. Additionally the indication I have received from the Board is<br>
that while the issues raised by NPOC in their appeal to the ICANN Board will<br>
receive appropriate follow-up and that the ICANN Board was interested in<br>
having all sides of the issue heard, they were not planning on taking any<br>
direct action that would prevent verification the NCSG election results.<br>
