The Academy has made a final count of its members leading into the beginning of Oscar nomination voting on Friday, with 9,300 members eligible to cast ballots for this year’s awards. That’s 62 fewer voters than in the count that was made in December, with the reduction due to some members retiring or moving to the non-voting emeritus classification and others dying.
The number of Oscar voters has still topped 9,000 for the first time since the mid-1940s, when the Academy allowed members of the Hollywood guilds to vote. And the total number of members, which includes non-voting associate members and emeritus members, remains above the 10,000 mark at 10,276.
