In February, we will be holding our 2021 Board of Directors Elections. The following positions are up for election:
- All members worldwide will be voting for the President and Vice President.
- Some members will be voting for the Director for their district.
- All members worldwide will be voting on a Board of Directors proposed by-law revision.
Ballot packages are being designed specifically for your district. Your ballot package will include candidate statements, the proposed by-law revision, the No Campaigning Policy, and the ballot. As we have for the last few years, the ballot will not be published in the magazine.

Your election invitation should arrive around FEB 1 and the election will close on MAR 1. Eligible U.S. members who do not have an email address on file will receive a paper ballot via postal mail.

Since the ballots are being distributed from different locations and in different manners, the ballots will most certainly arrive at their destinations at different times. Please take the time to vote, and thank you for being a member of the NMRA.
