Thank you all for voting in the TAFF race. We had an outstanding number of votes this year, and it was a hard fought race, between worthy candidates who are both good friends of mine. The results are as follows:

And now a word (or several) from our winner:
I feel very proud to have won the TAFF election, and at the same time very humbled.I have a serious task ahead, and I hope to let down neither those who voted for me nor those who have gone before me.
I was pretty sure Anders would win, and am still in a state of shock.
I shall make no promises, but I understand that a TAFF report is part of the deal, I shall do my best.
Meanwhile, in return for your vote, I would like suggestions of things people would like to see me do, while stateside, and I shall do my best to complete whatever tasks are set for me, within reason.
Many thanks to you all.
Your humble TAFF delegate,
James BaconIn closing I would like to thank Randy and, as always, Max.
