2.2.4.2.1.5 The election campaign

For the majority of interviewees, the election campaign had little effect because so many voters had made their decision in advance. Many also criticized the lack of information in different languages, the lack of debates organized by ICANN (either through in-person meetings or through electronic means such as public chats). People believed that there were not adequate opportunities for exchanging ideas and positions between candidates and the At-Large Members. There were no public debates, and the electronic Q&A forum organized at members.icann.org saw very little activity.
