In the event of a tie, candidates who are tied will only be considered going forward. One or more run-off elections will be held if the number of candidates has been reduced from the previous election.

The chair will solicit interest for a vice-chair, and will select a vice-chair. The vice-chair must be a non-RIR staff committee member, and from a different RIR region to the chair.
