Unfortunately, to vote you must be a registered TriLUG member before this
month's election (in other words, you must have joined at the last meeting
or before) *and* you must be at the meeting to vote.  There are no proxy
votes.  Winners are those that get a simple majority of the voters present.

That said, I agree that it would be great to see candidate bios.  Looking at
http://trilug.org/wiki/Steering_Committee_2009-2010_Nominations it appears
we have 7 candidates (although, I've heard rumors of at least one possibly
withdrawing).  I'm sure at least the ones that are running for reelection could
post their bios from previous years.  How about the rest?  Anyone who posts
their bio, I'll add it to that wiki page for you. :-) (or you could
add it yourself,
it is a wiki after all!).

Two weeks to go.  It's definitely time to see bios so people can start
discussing
things.  (And, if anyone has more nominations, make them too!)

Cheers,
