Election Answers to FAQs

We received several questions about various ballot issues. Here's a short primer:

1. Communicators can only vote for a communicator member of the Board of Governors.

2. Not all communicators can vote. The number of voting communicators is a function of the number of journalist members. We have several Communicators who have full membership privileges -- i.e., they can attend all club events, use all club facilities, receive all discounts -- who are not able to vote in this election. As we add journalists, they will become eligible to vote.

3. There are two open positions on the Board of Governors for three-year terms. Journalists voting must vote for both positions -- you can't vote for just one.

4. But in the contested race for Secretary, Journalists can only vote for one.
