NOTICE OF RUNOFF ELECTIONS FOR GEO MOBILIZATION COORDINATOR

May 5, 2025

Dear GEO Members,

This is an official notice that there will be a runoff election for the position of GEO Mobilization Coordinator. This runoff is taking place because three candidates ran for Mobilization Coordinator, but none of them received more than 50% of the votes cast. The GEO bylaws therefore require a runoff election to be held between the two candidates who received the most votes:

• Antonis Gounalakis

• Jessica Scott

VOTING

Voting for this runoff election will occur online via ElectionRunner. Voting will begin on Monday, May 12, 2025, and conclude on Wednesday, May 14, 2025, at a special meeting of the Elections Committee. This meeting will be held on Zoom at noon; link TBA.
