2016 Executive Board Election: Register to Vote!
US Chess will hold an election in 2016 for two at-large positions on the US Chess Executive Board. For full details, please refer to the call for nominations published in the October and November 2015 issues of Chess Life. (Note: nominating deadline was December 31, 2015.)
US Chess Members: Don't forget to register as a voting member here so you can vote in this year’s Executive Board elections:
secure2.uschess.org/ voter-registration.php. Voting members elect the Executive Board. US Chess members (except those with memberships of less than one year) can register as a voting member. Voting members must be age 16 or over as of June 30 of the election year. Eligible members who are not already
registered as voting members must register with the US Chess office by May 1 to be eligible to vote in that year’s regular election. All members who are selected as US Chess delegates, alternate delegates or Executive Board members are automatically registered as voting members. Once registered, a member’s status as a voting member continues as long as he or she is a member. When a membership lapses, voting member status ceases and the member must, after rejoining, again register by May 1 to be eligible to vote in that year’s regular election. In order to vote in a regular election, registered voting members must be US Chess members on May 5th of the election year, for the entire day Central Time. There is no registration fee.
