Voter Roll
==========

All active Python core team members are eligible to vote. Active status
is determined as described in `PEP 13 <https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0013/#membership>`_
and implemented via the software at `python/voters <https://github.com/python/voters>`_ [1]_.

Ballots will be distributed based on the `The Python Voter Roll for this
election
<https://github.com/python/voters/blob/master/voter-files/>`_
[1]_.

While this file is not public as it contains private email addresses, the
`Complete Voter Roll`_ by name will be made available when the roll is
