If you want to help get the vote out, go to the ballot:

https://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/voting/ballot.php?id=2339

(Login is required.)

Click in the link near the bottom that says "Voting Details." It will show you who can vote and who has voted. 

Look thru the list for people you know or have dealt with who have not voted.

Alternatively, if you know an influential person in an organization listed you may want to write to that person instead. In this case mention who the voting rep is, since often people don't know.

Send an email to the person asking them to vote for XACML. Be sure to include a link to the ballot.

Post to the list who you have contacted, so we don't all hammer the same person.

The message depends on who you are sending it to and may range from an explanation what XACML is to a simple request for a vote.

Here is a generic message I sent to a number of people.

We have had a number of public interoperability demonstrations and will be featuring six companies interoperating at the upcoming RSA Conference. XACML 3.0 also contains significant new features.
