The Executive team has selected the company ‘Simply Voting’ to conduct our elections.
All members will receive information in the mail, sent to their last recorded home address (with your employer). This document will contain your unique identifier and a password. Once this is received you follow the instructions contained in your document by going onto the internet and voting for the candidates you are allowed to vote for (for example everyone votes for the Table Officers, but then each section can only vote for positions within their section).
