🤝Elections

Silver Door holds board of directors elections yearly.

Silver Door has a core election mechanism which is purely democratic. Each year the membership gets to propose new or former board of director seats; and each Silver Door member has one vote.

---

As a Colorado Limited Cooperative Association, we need to maintain a board of directors. The board members have a directive and an obligation to act as fiduciaries on the behalf of the Silver Door cooperative.

Nomination

Any loose coalition of Silver Door members can nominate a new or previous board member.

Campaign

Each board nominee will have an immutable "platform" proposal document which is uploaded to Arweave via Mirror. The platform will contain a mix of concrete deliverable outcomes and heuristic pledges. Each platform is a commitment that the nominee will take certain actions, conduct themselves in a certain way and achieve certain goals.

Board nominees may endorse others and co-create platforms. Board roles are not all interchangeable; so each seat will have it's own unique pool of nominees.

It is up to the members to determine if there will be debates or other events that shape the election process.

Certification

Successful candidates will be certified on-chain with the minting of a special "Board Member" Hat.
