Congratulations to Our LCP-elect 2009, Amira Choueiki!
We held elections for who would succeed me as Local Committee President of the Local Committee on Monday. The two candidates were Parampal Randhawa and Amira Choueiki.
Each had ten minutes to give a speech, followed by five minutes of question-and answering per candidate. Then the LC discussed them both with neither of them present, and they both came back into the room to receive one more round of questions.
Then we voted. Our LC uses a process called "range voting," which is more representative of the actual feelings regarding the candidates than the "one man, one vote" principle. And with that, Amira was elected as the Local Committee President of AIESEC at Georgia Tech 2009!

Wow, it's great to see score voting used in increasingly important elections. It starts with Fedora Linux and the LCP. Maybe in a few years we'll see some cities using it.
