TO:
FROM: Leslie Cooksy, AEA President
The ballot is now open
and we have two important pieces of business this year:
- Selection
of a President-elect, a Treasurer, and three Board Members-at-Large, and
- Approval
or rejection of a revision of the AEA Bylaws.
Please take a moment to cast
your vote. Thoughtful selection of the leadership ensures the vitality and
longevity of the association. The ballot includes extensive personal statements
developed by each nominee to help you make informed selections. The Bylaws
serve as AEA's guiding legal document. The Bylaws question includes a
side-by-side comparison of the existing and recommended revised version of the
Bylaws.
You may log on and vote
at any time between today and midnight Eastern Time on Wednesday, July 21, and
may re-log in and re-vote up until the final day of balloting.
Later ballots from the
same person will override earlier ones. Reminder notices will be sent to those
who have not cast their ballot by Wednesday, July 7 (vote early to avoid the
extra email!).
Although you must login
to vote, the username and password is used to ensure that each person's vote is
counted only once. We do not track the voting behavior of individuals.
