(* indicates teams with pending nominations which haven't been confirmed by more than one election official yet)

This means that with approximately 2 days left, 30 projects will be deemed leaderless. In this case the TC will oversee PTL selection as described by [3].

There are also currently 2 confirmed candidates and 3 additional pending nominations for the 4 open Technical Committee seats, indicating it's likely there will be a runoff poll for the TC election.
