Congratulations to the winners. And a huge thank you to Spiff and Bhatnasx. ^
P.S. Is the individual vote count for all candidates who stood for election available anywhere? If not, can it be made available for view SanDiego1K, assuming it is possible and there is no rule against it...? Thanks.

I have it and am happy to let any curious candidate know how many votes he received. Randy and I chatted about this when he handed off to me. We both felt it kind to not show all the votes. It's no fun to be the one who gets a single digit count.

Unfortunately for Spiff is no longer TB member. Sad to see him go. He had a great contributed working the TB member for a long time. It's time to let him go.

Just wanted to offer my congratulations to those who ere elected to serve on our new TalkBoard. As a candidate, I feel honoured to have had the privilege to stand shoulder to shoulder with the finest this forum has to offer and to express my ideas for the future of this great place. I look forward to the opportunity perhaps to run again in the future.

Fair enough, that is quite reasonable indeed.

I was disappointed for about five seconds when I didn't see my name then, when looking over the winners, realized they'd all be much, much better at it that I would be. Which is probably why I voted for 3 of them.
Congratulations to you all!^

Congrats to the winners! Especially any of them who reacted favorably to my question about a mens travel forum! ^
Which, I think, was none of ya. But a lot of 'neutral' and 'open to hearing the case.'

Congratulations, all! I really enjoyed being engaged in this election. It got me to really think about the importance of FT.
Happy Holidays to all!

Congrats to the winners!
When you cast your future ballots, please remember that you're voting on behalf of FlyerTalk members - including those that may not be as vocal about their opinions. Please do your best to follow the spirit of what FlyerTalk is and try to stay true to it's founding philosophies.
I truly hope you will do your best to serve FlyerTalk and it's members.
It's been an interesting, but long 6 years for me, and truth be told, I'm quite happy to leave the TalkBoard as FlyerTalk isn't quite the place that it used to be for me and isn't necessarily headed in what I believe to be a positive sustainable direction. I hope that through your and your co-TB member's leadership, it can be come something great versus something commoditized.
Best wishes,
