Dear ARRL member,
Email messages are being sent to members indicating that the online voting site for the 2023 ARRL Great Lakes Division Election is now open. The message will include instructions to access candidate statements, the ballot, and to vote.
A third party was selected by the ARRL Ethics and Elections Committee to conduct the election: Election Services Co. (ESC) of Melville, New York. This same company conducted ARRL elections in 2022. Some background about the effort to include an option to use electronic ballots can be found in the October 2022 issue of QST magazine, page 63, in the article “Modernizing the ARRL Division Director and Vice Director Elections.”
Please watch your email for the message from Election Services Co.
The email message will include the following header:
