Jenkins Elections

The Jenkins community has completed the 2025 elections. On behalf of the Jenkins community and the elections committee, we congratulate all newly elected board members and officers! We also thank all candidates and voters who participated this year.

Election results:

The board positions and officer roles are an essential part of the Jenkins project and we are excited to see contributors taking these roles.

The board continues to require that no single company may have a majority on the Jenkins governance board.

Governance Board election details

This year we had three candidates for the Jenkins Governance Board, two for the Documentation Officer, and one for Events Officer. All of them are awesome community leaders who actively contribute to the Jenkins project and represent its users.

We used the Condorcet Internet Voting Service that allows voters to rank their choices rather than just picking their one favorite choice.

All board members are elected for a 2-year term. The estimated end of the term for them is December 15, 2027.

Officer election details

All 5 officer positions were up for election this year. These roles have a 1-year term, with the estimated end of term on December 15, 2026. After the initial review of nominations and confirmations with potential candidates, 3 officer positions were uncontested:

Thanks to all Jenkins officers for their continued leadership! Officers take responsibility for many day-to-day processes in the Jenkins community and lead the contributor teams working on them. It requires significant time commitment and it is not taken for granted.

Statistics

This year we had 66 registered voters and 39 actual votes.

Feedback

The Jenkins project plans to conduct elections every year. We appreciate and welcome feedback regarding the election process so that we can improve the process.

If you have any private feedback you would like to share, please email the Jenkins Board. If you would like to raise any issues about the election process, please contact one of the elected Governance Board members.
