PEC Director District Boundaries

During the upcoming board member elections you will have the opportunity to select candidates from not just your own district, but from all districts that have seats open for election. You will be voting for both the voting and non-voting advisory positions. In my opinion, this is a sound decision for all members to vote for representatives from all the districts. The reason the voting is set up this way is to ensure that all areas are represented fairly and not have a bias from any particular region. It is also important to remember that each individual board member will make decisions that impact not just their own district, but all PEC districts. Each and every PEC member will have the opportunity to review all candidates through the mail ballots containing short candidate biographies and the May 1st Board Meeting. It is important that you review each candidate's qualifications and make an informed decision on who are the best candidates to lead us through the challenges and opportunities that are in front of us.
