        <p class="MsoNormal">I agree with Huidae. Pretty much
          simultaneously with the GRASS PSC elections, CoMSES.Net held
          executive board election. We also ran into glitches with this
          remote voting and eventually had to rerun the election. So the
          GRASS one went very well. Thanks. Having a way to work out a
          list of eligible voters is important but I’m sure that GRASS
          expertise can solve it. Perhaps we can then propose this to US
          states who are wrestling with the same question and often
          proposing really bad solutions

    <p>I got a suggestion, by Rich Shepard, about "ranked choice voting
      (RCV?)". I have no experience with it but possibly something the
      PSC may want to have a look at.</p>
