Candidate Q&A

To inform voters about the candidates, there is an opportunity to ask questions to the candidates/nominees.

Once the deadline is over, the answers (or absence thereof) will be compiled into the candidates file, which will be linked on the ballot.

If you want to ask a question

As an eligible voters, even as a candidate/nominee, you can ask questions to (other) candidates/nominees. Questions may be directed to specific candidates/nominees. But note that even candidates/nominees you didn't ask can answer your question.

Please keep questions short and relevant.

Be aware of the the timeline: The deadline for asking questions is Thursday 2024-10-03.

How to ask a question

  1. Look through existing questions to make sure nobody else asked your question already.

    If your question has been asked before, but you'd like to ask a specific candidate/nominee to answer it, and they haven't been @-mentioned already, you can @-mention them.

  2. Create a new GitHub issue using the candidate question issue template and fill it out accordingly.

Rules

  • Keep questions respectful and civil
  • Do not comment on questions unless you are a candidate/nominee
    • The one exception is that if you want to ask additional candidates/nominees explicitly, and they haven't been @-mentioned yet, then you can @-mention them.
    • If you have follow-up questions, you can create another issue
  • Do not edit your question, other than minor fixes such as typos
