All fully paid Lifetime members and Annual members with five or more consecutive years of membership, who have attained the age of 18 years and who are citizens of the United States of America, can pick up their voting credentials authorizing them to receive a ballot for the election of the 76th Board member. The credentials will also allow the member to vote on issues on the floor during the Annual Meeting of Members. Annual members, whose membership is verified, will also receive a ballot to vote for the 76th Director. When voting credentials are verified, members will be given appropriate voting information (with instructions). To be eligible to vote, a person must be a member of record on or before the 50th day (March 26, 2010 this year) prior to the Annual Meeting of Members.
