ReConStruction was the tenth occasional North American Science Fiction Convention.[1] It was held in Raleigh, North Carolina, on August 5–8, 2010, at the Raleigh Convention Center, Marriott City Center, and the Downtown Raleigh Sheraton.[2][3][4] This NASFiC was held because Melbourne, Australia, was selected as the location for the 2010 Worldcon.[3]

Information

Site selection

After "Australia in 2010" was selected as the World Science Fiction Convention to be held in 2010 (as "Aussiecon 4" in Melbourne), the WSFS Business Meeting directed that a written ballot election be held at Anticipation, the then-upcoming Worldcon in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, to select a NASFiC site for 2010.[5][6] Raleigh's bid was certified as the winner with 241 votes out of 276 cast and 3 invalid submissions.[6] Although formally unopposed, the Raleigh bid was not the only location to receive the attention of the voters. Pasadena, California, received 19 votes, Durham, North Carolina, and Ridgecrest, California, each received 1 vote, and joke votes were cast for "Peggy Rae's House" and the fictional planet "Xerps".[6]
