+
+Polls for PTL and TC elections are now open and will remain open for
+you to cast your vote until {{ election_end }}.
+
+We are selecting {{ seats }} TC members, and are having PTL
+elections for {{ list_of_elections }}. Please rank all candidates in
+your order of preference.
+
+You are eligible to vote in the TC election if you are a Foundation
+individual member[0] that also has committed to any official project
+team's deliverable repositories[1] over the {{ time_frame }}
+timeframe ({{ start_release }} to {{ end_release }}) or if you are
+in the list of extra-atcs[2] for any official project team.
+
+You are eligible to vote in a PTL election if you are a Foundation
+individual member[0] and had a commit in one of that team's
+deliverable repositories[1] over the {{ time_frame }} timeframe ({{
+start_release }} to {{ end_release }}) or if you are in that team's
+list of extra-atcs[2].
+
+If you are eligible to vote in an election, you should find your
+email with a link to the Condorcet page to cast your vote in the
+inbox of your Gerrit preferred email[3].
+
+What to do if you don't see the email and have a commit in at
+least one of the projects having an election:
+* check the trash or spam folders of your gerrit Preferred
+    Email address, in case it went into trash or spam
+* wait a bit and check again, in case your email server is a bit slow
+* find the sha of at least one commit from the project's deliverable
+    repos[0] and email the election officials[4].
+
+If we can confirm that you are entitled to vote, we will add you
+to the voters list for the appropriate election.
+
+Our democratic process is important to the health of OpenStack,
+please exercise your right to vote!

+Candidate statements/platforms can be found linked to Candidate
