SECO Board Election Process, Application & Voting

VOTE!  Voting starts Saturday, May 31 @ noon.  You can vote online (see button below) until Monday, June 2 @ noon.  In person voting at the SECO offices is Sunday, June 1 from 1 -4 and Monday, June 2 from 4-6.  See details below.

The Southeast Community Organization has 15 total seats on our Board of Directors. Board members are elected to 2-year terms. Seven seats are up for election in odd-numbered years and eight are up in even-numbered years. Vacant seats that are not normally up for election in a given election may be filled via the election (the top vote-getters win the full-term seats while the next-highest-vote-getters win the half-term seats). This year, there are 7 full-term seats up for election.
