CHICAGO - The 2013 ALA election will close at 4:30 p.m. CDT on Friday, April 26 If you have not yet cast your vote, please do so! If you have “parked” your ballot (started but not yet completed), please return to complete the process. In the event you cannot locate the email with your voting credentials, the ALA Member and Customer Service Department can help you. Contact them at customerservice@ala.org, or 1 (800) 545-2433, option 5.
Voting turnout this year is lagging behind last year thus far. As of Friday, April 12, approximately 15.79 percent of the eligible voters had submitted their ballots. This compares with 16.78 percent at the same time in 2012. Total voter turnout in 2012 was 20.9 percent, so let’s try to meet or beat that number!
The ALA Election Committee will meet at ALA Headquarters on Friday May 3 to certify the election results. The results will be publically announced that afternoon. All newly-elected officers will be seated at the close of the 2013 Annual Conference in Chicago.
