Staff Elections



 

Results of 2003 poll

Voters may cast their ballots for an entire list, but are also allowed to cross out certain candidates, or indicate a preference for some over others. That is why the full results give the numbers of votes received by every individual candidate on every list. To simplify, the tables below show only the numbers of votes received by the number-one main-delegate candidate on each list. It also shows the numbers of main delegates elected for each list.

NB: In April 2003, an initial round of voting failed to produce a quorum, as less than half of those eligible to vote did so. This meant that a second round had to take place in May-June. The electoral rules do not impose a quorum for a second round. The "MIDI" list, which made its first appearance in an AFP staff election on this occasion, later became the SUD-AFP union branch.
