This is Jeff Pharr, National Communications Coordinator, with a special Hotline update for Wednesday, June 16, 2010.

APFA NATIONAL TREASURER ELECTION

In last week’s hotline, a reminder to cast your ballot for APFAís National Treasurer Election was inadvertently not included. There is one week remaining to cast your vote in this election.

Polls for this election close at 10:00 AM CT on Thursday, June 24, 2010.

The Voter Packet for the APFA Treasurer election was mailed to all members on May 25th. The election is being conducted by electronic ballot using the telephone and Internet, through the BallotPoint Election Services system. APFA Treasurer Candidate Information is included in the voter packet and also posted on the APFA website. Click here to access.

You may use the same VIN and PIN identification numbers you used while voting in the strike authorization election. If you do not have those identification numbers, there is activation code included in the Treasurer Voter packet which can be used.

Members should contact the National Balloting Committee (NBC) at APFA Headquarters 817.540.0108 ext. 8311 for voting assistance requiring:

• a new activation code
• voter packets not received
• voter packet lost or misplaced
• Vin/Pin credentials forgotten

An NBC representative must speak with any member requiring a new activation code. Detailed instructions on the NBC voicemail (817.540.0108 ext. 8311) have been posted. Voicemail and email ([email protected]) will be monitored daily to provide assistance to members.
