Completed nominee questionnaires must be submitted before the Call for

Nomination Process and Election Slate Development

For detailed information on the ARIN Election nomination process, please visit:
https://www.arin.net/participate/oversight/elections/processes/#iv-nominations-process

For 2023, the process for evaluating nominees is notably different. The 
Nomination Committee (NomCom) is responsible for helping in the recruitment of 
individuals to self-nominate for the election. All nominees must self-nominate 
and complete all nomination materials to be considered for the Initial 
Candidate Slate. Nominees will be evaluated and assessed by an independent, 
third-party vendor, and all qualified nominees will appear on the ballot. The 
evaluation of qualifications will be based on the nominee questionnaire 
responses, background checks (Board only) and interviews, and the guidance 
letters received from the Board and AC.

The Candidate Slate will include at least five candidates for the Board and at 
least seven candidates for the AC. The open seats up for election will include 
three three-year term seats and one one-year term seat for the Board; for the 
AC, there will be five three-year term seats and one one-year term seat. Seats 
with partial terms are filled by the nonelected candidate who possesses the 
highest number of votes cast for the position and who is willing to serve.

Initial Slate

With the completion of its qualification classification process, the NomCom 
will provide an Initial Slate of Candidates for the Board and AC based on the 
assessments and information provided by the third-party vendor. The only 
nominees not included on this initial slate will be individuals who were 
classified as “Unable to Qualify” based on the evaluation criteria. ARIN will 
announce the Initial Slate of Candidates on Tuesday, 5 September 2023.
