The Election Committee has been working to clear any data glitches, verified email addresses, and have attempted to confirm positions with the appropriate XXGenWeb and Special Projects over the last couple of months. It would be prudent for all members to check their registration for accuracy, and for those new members who have not registered to vote in the annual election to do so promptly to secure your right to vote. There are important issues to be decided, and every vote is needed so that the views of the membership are known. This evening I was able to check my own registration and found the process very easy. With the help of the EC Chair, these are the instructions to register and update your membership: Register to vote and/or Update your membership: http://www.usgwelections.org/USGenWeb/Register.cfm 1. Go to the above site. 2. Follow the instructions on the first page. These will tell you how to receive a password if you have not already requested yours. Note that this is *not* a voting password. This password is for the registration records only. Your password will be emailed to you. 3. Once you have entered your password and ID number, click on continue. 4. The last box on that page, is "Vote in Elections?" Click that box if you wish to register to vote. 5. Next, click on "Update Record". This will take you to the page where you can view/edit your records. 6. Here you will see the states and projects listed that the Election Committee has verified in which you are a volunteer/member. 7. To edit the information (i.e. add a county name), on the line that has that project, click on "edit". a. Once you have edited information, you must click on the "Click this link" to save your information. 8. To add a new project, use the boxes below and follow the instructions listed on the page. 9. There is a link that says "no changes needed" that you can click on if your information is correct. 10. The last page enables you to change your password or you can click on "Finished". The deadline for registering to vote in the upcoming elections is midnight, May 31st. It's a simple process, takes less than five minutes, and it's your responsibility as members to insure your right to vote is protected.

Ed, Just to clarify for everyone, the form being used is actually to receive an ID# and password so that you can go in and check your current registration information and make sure that it is correct. Keeping this ID# and password will allow members to make sure their information stays up to date with the EC - ie, email address changes and membership status changes. If your information is not correct when you access it in this manner then you will not receive a voting password when the time comes. For newer members or older members who never registered to vote, this same page allows you to register now. You should then receive confirmation of that along with an ID# and a password to access your voting registration. Please remember these passwords are not your voting passwords. That will be a separate correspondence from the EC at election time.
