Description
Election Night Process: What to Expect
This is a rolling ballot election, and you may continue to run for each position unless you win one — once you are elected to a position, you are placed in that role and cannot run for another.
We will begin by nominating and voting for the Chair position.
Anyone interested in running for Chair will have the opportunity to speak briefly about why they are running.
After all candidates have spoken, each person will cast a vote on a piece of paper.
The nominee who receives the most votes will become Chair, pending the signing of a required leadership agreement.
If you run for Chair and do not win, you are still eligible to run for the next position, which is Vice Chair. The process will be repeated for each position in order.
We will continue this pattern through all available leadership roles.
Please note: All elected individuals must sign an agreement confirming their responsibilities, conduct expectations, and commitment to the role before officially taking the position.
Let’s keep the process fair, respectful, and focused on building a strong team together!
Positions will run December 2025 through December 2026
