For Distribution to the USGenWeb Project Members, Due to some miscommunications the Advisory Board has gotten a late start on the elections process. Elections [voting] for Representatives will begin on July 1st, 1999. However, the Elections process begins today, June 1st, with the opening of Nominations for a period of two weeks. Ginger Hayes, Celia Snyder, and Mary Ann Hetrick have volunteered to serve on the Nominations committee. Ginger Hayes has agreed, via Megan, to Chair that committee. It is my understanding at this writing that an e-mail list is being requested for this committee to begin accepting nominations. A general call through the STATE-COORD-List has gone out to all SCs to prepare a list of elgible voters and to name a Liaison person to communicate with the Elections Committee for their state. Several states have completed this part. The Advisory Board is verifying the positions needed to be filled and I'm sure that an announcement will be made yet today about this. Also, at this time the Advisory Board wishes to put out a general call for volunteers to serve on the Elections Committee. The Elections Committees are made from both USGWP Volunteers and Advisory Board members.
