This means there is now less than 36 hours left to vote. If you haven't casted your vote yet (we have at the moment a 27% participation rate), please run to your election booth and be sure to cast your vote. You can follow the instructions below and if you have any questions be sure to run "votify --help" or contact us. Don't forget to run "votify --verify council-201406" to make sure everything is ok with your ballot and "votify --submit council-201406" to submit your ballot. If you don't submit your ballot, your vote won't count. At the moment we have a few ballots that weren't submitted, so make sure you submitted your vote. > [1] - > http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/elections/council/2014/council-201406.xml > > Please let us know if you find any issues with the page or with the election. > > The rules for the Council election as well as details on how to vote for > this election are available in the Council Elections Archives[2].
