ELECTION 2022: The ApeCoin DAO's First Special Council Vote Is Happening Later This Week.
The ApeCoin DAO has locked the nominee profiles on Discourse and the community is getting ready to vote for its top five Special Council candidates later this week.
After a two-week question and answer period with the DAO’s 42 candidates via the nominees Discourse pages, the $Ape community is set to select which five Special Council nominees should move on to the next round.
This first vote, which will begin on December 15th, will determine which five nominees will move on to the next round and become candidates for the three Special Council seats. The window for $Ape holders to cast their ballots will close on December 21st, according to the ApeCoin DAO’s official election timeline.

With 42 candidates running for office, it is difficult to determine who the ApeCoin DAO community will select to move on to the next round.
