Where there are more than two candidates, I recommend single transferrable vote / instant runoff, with the election decided by simple majority of the votes cast:
Each voter ranks the candidates 1-N
#1 votes are tabulated;
If one candidate has a majority, that candidate wins. If not,
The candidate with fewest #1 votes is dropped from the list and his/her next (#2) votes are allocated to the remaining candidates;
The process continues until one candidate has a simple majority of the votes.
That candidate is the winner.

Just to avoid creating one more procedural document, I suggest you to start from the rules that are already in our Rules of Procedure,
and to change them if necessary. Currently, the rules are simple majority (first past the post) provided that the winner has at least five votes,
and that at least ten votes are cast (including abstentions). There are also rules to cover ties and lacks of quorums. See ""\[https://st.icann.org/alac/index.cgi/ALAC%202007%201%201.Rev3%20ALAC%20Internal%20Rules%20of%20Procedure%20-%20EN.pdf?action=attachments_download;page_name=rules_of_procedure;id=20070606071510-1-17622\^[http://tinyurl.com/ywxpxg] |

First of all, I think candidates should refrain from commenting on the voting procedure.
Secondly, I think the proposed rules are OK, but don't understand why you need a different procedure than the one in the ALAC Rules of Procedure Vittorio refers to.

I have posted a notice on the creation on the working group on the public at-large list to solicit comments and/or suggestion.

A suggestion related to having the position of chair alternate has been recieved. A EU troika (past, current & future) chair mechanism might be one way to do it. There could be others. awaiting specific language so that WG can try to suggest language for consideration by the ALAC

WG has completed its task of creating a - DRAFT - for consideration by the ALAC. However, comments are still being received . As time permits, and in the order comments are received - the WG will try to draft suggested alternatives to include.

I am not yet clear about the real merit of Instant Run-off Voting vs. the traditional simple majority vote in case of no one got majority to go secound round for simple majority. Could someone explain it?that will be very much appreciated.
