Upcoming Board Election 2008

PLEASE NOTE: The 2007 Summer SPE Members' Newsletter stated that the slate of candidates would be posted on the SPE website on August, 1, however, that date has been pushed back to September 1.

The nomination committee, chaired by Steven J. Bliss, is in the process of creating an initial slate of eight candidates for election to the national board of directors this fall. The slate posting on the SPE website has been pushed back to September 1, 2007. It is our goal to have the election ballots in the mail to you by late October/ early November.

Our bylaws provide members with a period of thirty days to respond to the slate before the ballots are printed and mailed. This year, we will again take advantage of our website to publish the initial slate on September 1, allowing members until October 1 the opportunity to coordinate an addition to this preliminary slate of candidates. Our bylaws enable members to make an addition to the slate that has been assembled by the nominations committee prior to the election. Making such an amendment requires the following: "The committee shall make up to four (4) additional nominations at the request of at least two (2) percent of the membership for any single nominee in descending numerical order above the minimum needed" (SPE Bylaws, Article IV, Section 3).

If you are interested in submitting additional names to the slate of candidates please send your submission to speoffice@spenational by Monday, October 1. We will notify you if any names are added to this slate.
