<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">As previously announced, this e-mail message will send you your call to vote for the elections of the Vrije Universiteit Staff Council and possibly your Subcommittee for the term 2023-2025. You will
find a direct link to your personal ballot paper(s) in this mail. Use the button below to gain direct access via your browser. You need your VUnet ID for this. The anonymity of your vote is guaranteed.<br>
<br>
You can cast your vote from now until March 19, 2023 to 11:59 p.m. You cast your vote by voting for one candidate from one of the lists. Or you choose the option to vote blank. A blank vote expresses that you cannot make a choice. In that case, do not select
a candidate and then click vote. You will then see a confirmation that you are going to vote blank. This vote then counts in the turnout percentage.<br>
At the same time as the elections for the Staff Council, elections will also be held for the ODCs for Administration Office and Student and Educational Affairs.<br>
<br>
If you have any questions about the election or the voting procedure, please contact the Elections Committee. If you run into problems while voting, please contact the official secretary Klaske van den Berg (06-43214894). Or mail to:
