2016 English Language Moderator Election

2016 Moderator Election Vote: Final stage

And ... sure enough. My first official act as a moderator is to delete poop.

Note that quality of answers/rep isn't a necessary quality being enthusiastic about English does help though. On top of review activity, I'd say the most relevant though is level headedness.

Congratulations to the new mods, tchrist and MετάEd! Have fun with your new mops. :P

Before this room gets deleted, I'd just like to again thank all who have supported me in this election with your kind words. It was way more encouraging to me to have had that and not be named a mod (particularly with the slate of candidates we had) than for it to have been the other way around. Thank you!

congrats @tchrist & @MετάEd :D

You can state your preferences as many times as you like until you're happy or the deadline chimes.

Sorry to butt in. Yes, that's absolutely fine. Are you sure you don't want to have any influence beyond that preference? (Note, you are indicating preference, not casting votes: you only have one vote and three preference options for how that vote is used). See the Meta.SE post and particularly Wrzlprmft's answer.

@MarkHubbard details such as that and when the election starts and ends are in the right hand column at the top of the election page.
