Nominations for elected officers
« on: September 20, 2024, 04:42:00 PM »
As you read in my Presidents Report, in the Newsletter, this is an election year. I need to receive all nominations by October 1, 2024, in order to be included on this year's ballot. I am attaching a link to our constitution and the by-laws dictating the requirements to be eligible:

Please send any nominations (including your own) to me in an email to slicktree@hotmail.com I can also be reached at 419-410-2613 if you have any questions or if you haven't received a confirmation email.

Thanks for the update Russ.   The deadline for nominations is today, so there is still time to throw a hat in the ring.  The more competition the better in my opinion.

The Ballot for the 2024 Ameraucana Alliance elected officers is complete and will be going out tomorrow in the mail, if you receive a mailed newsletter. If you receive your newsletter electronically through an email that is how your ballot will arrive. I attached a PDF copy of the Ballot just in case anyone might need it. Remember you can only cast one ballot and one vote for President. Per our constitution and its bylaws, we can elect 2 to 6 directors, so only vote for up to 6 directors including any write ins. Per article 6 all ballots need to be received by the election commissioner by November 1, 2024.

Edit: I moved the PDF file of the ballot to the members only section
