+
+The OpenTelemetry project is proud to announce the winners of the 2023
+OpenTelemetry Governance Committee (GC) election! Before we get into the
+results, I'd like to share some statistics about the election!
+
+This year, 616 project members were eligible to vote. Of those, 206 cast
+ballots, for a participation rate of about 33%! For comparison, the 2022
+election saw 219 ballots cast with 513 eligible voters. Overall ballots cast was
+similar year-over-year, but the number of eligible voters increased
+significantly indicating that the project continues to grow.
+
+With that out of the way, please join me in congratulating
+[Austin Parker](https://github.com/austinlparker),
+[Daniel Gomez Blanco](https://github.com/danielgblanco),
+[Juraci Paixão Kröhling](https://github.com/jpkrohling),
+[Severin Neumann](https://github.com/svrnm), and
+[Ted Young](https://github.com/tedsuo)! All will serve a two-year term.
+
+We'd like to thank everyone who participated -- candidates, voters, and the
+election organizers -- for their efforts. You can find the
+[full results of the election here](https://vote.heliosvoting.org/helios/elections/1ee70ee4-11ce-11ee-aaf8-0a8c9aac83f9/view).
