On behalf of the Code4Lib 2025 Keynote Committee. PS: I cannot give you any details, but I have been granted permission to share that the election is *very close* So... if you were reluctant to cast a vote thinking the outcome was weighted in any sort of way, let me reassure you that is not the case, and *your vote* really will matter in this election.
