We're in the countdown to the #InternetNZ board elections. Deliberation is ongoing, but here are my ranked preferences as of 20/07/2026: 1 Bianca Grizhar 2 Keoni Mahelona 3 Daniel Spector 4 Annette Culpan 5 Nabil Sabio Azadi ? David Chisholm No Douglas Brown No Jan Rivers No Jillaine Heather

Basically we have an incentive to rank the least worst option. Much debate over who is the least worst among Rivers/Brown/Heather. Happy to hear counter reckons! bsky.app/profile/jpda...

I have ranked Rivers at 7. This has caused something of a kerfuffle as I previously had her unranked. However... With the STV voting system if there is a lesser evil, it is best to rank it. I feel Rivers would be less effective than Brown or Heather. #InternetNZ #INZReckons

Yeah agree. And folks have been making some good arguments around how Rivers might actually be worse than Brown/Heather

I’m just soaking in the reckons currently but how those three are arranged at the end is the most likely area of change I think
