ELECTION
During the IMSA Alumni Association Annual Meeting, the association is to elect Officers and At-Large Members for the upcoming service year. At our 2026 meeting, the following positions are up for election:
1. Vice President (2-year term: August 31, 2026-August 31, 2028)
2. Treasurer (2-year term: August 31, 2026-August 31, 2028)
3. At-Large Member (up to eleven may be elected; 1-year term: August 31, 2026-August 31, 2027)
Note: Officers serve staggered 2-year terms. The current terms for President and Secretary end on August 31, 2027.
ADDITIONAL IMPORTANT NOTE: At the Annual Meeting, immediately prior to this election, there are proposed changes to the governing documents and organizational structure of the IMSA Alumni Association, which may affect this election. Upon ratification of new bylaws, the current officers will nominate anyone who was running for At-Large Member under the IAA Constitution as a candidate for Director, will use the already submitted online votes as members' intended votes cast by proxy for respective candidates of Directors to the Board, collect ballots of votes cast for Directors in-person at the Annual Meeting, and will note candidates and vote tallies for officer elections for consideration when the new Board of Directors selects the next set of officers under the new bylaws.
The planned new leadership structure is a Board consisting of 15 Directors serving staggered 2-year terms. In this first year under the new bylaws, all 15 Director positions are available: eight (8) Directors' terms beginning immediately and ending July 31, 2027, and seven (7) Directors terms beginning immediately and ending July 31, 2028.
Any alumni wishing to be nominated and be listed on the ballot must submit an online nomination form and provide a candidate statement by June 26, 2026.
A list of candidates and their statements will be posted following the nomination deadline.
Voting is a two-step process:
1. Voter Registration - this ensures that voters are eligible and receive access to one ballot. When voting opens or Within two days (whichever is later) by email, you will receive a unique "ballot code" to be used when you cast your ballot.
2. Cast Your Ballot - this form will officially record your votes. Any votes submitted without a valid "ballot code" will be disqualified.
Voting for the election shall begin online by July 3, 2026 and will continue until July 17, 2026. If an alumni member has not voted prior to the close of online voting, a ballot may be cast in the manner prescribed during the Annual Meeting on July 18.
