Research the Candidates

A great place to get started is to read our recent post on the ARIN Blog: 
“Prepare for ARIN Elections in Six Easy Steps”.

You are encouraged to review and/or submit Statements of Support for the

for moderation and will be posted, upon approval, within one business day. All 
submissions are subject to the Statements of Support Acceptable Use Policy .

All candidates were subscribed to the General Members Mailing List 
(https://lists.arin.net/mailman/listinfo/general-members) for the duration of 
the election period to answer questions from the voting community. We encourage 
you to join the mailing list as well to keep informed of ARIN Election activity.

Voting

If you are the Voting Contact for an eligible General Member, voting is as 
simple as logging into ARIN Online and following the Vote Now link in your 
dashboard. If you are not the Voting Contact, but your organization is eligible 
to participate in the election, please encourage your Voting Contact to vote. 
You can find information on how to view your voting contact on the ARIN website.

Eligibility for this election was determined per the published deadline of 5 
September 2022 at 5:00 PM. Voting Contacts for all General Members in Good 
Standing as of that time are eligible to participate. The Voting Contact listed 
at the time of the eligibility deadline is the only individual allowed to vote 
on behalf of an organization. If an organization changed its Voting Contact 
after 5 September, that individual will not be able to participate until the 
2023 election.

Participation in all phases of ARIN Elections is a key responsibility of 
General Members. Our community’s role is crucial for the process of electing 
ARIN’s leadership as well as ensuring the continued operation and growth of the 
Internet.
