Update: September 21, 2015
The results of this year's election are posted here.
The Society has again retained Vote-Now to conduct its election of officers, directors, and committee members. In July Vote-Now will send instructions for voting in this election to all SCS members in good standing for 2015. Members for whom we have a valid e-mail address will receive their instructions via e-mail; all others will receive instructions via first-class mail. Regardless of the method of notification, all members will once again have the option to vote online or to use a paper ballot. The deadline for receipt of paper ballots will be the close of business on Monday, September 14, 2015. Online balloting will close at 3:00 a.m. Eastern time on Thursday, September 17, 2015.
The online ballot will contain links to the biographical sketches and election statements of individual candidates. In addition, several documents relevant to the election are posted here.
