The election will be decided by a vote of members. Advance voting period takes place from Aug.12 - Sept.12. In-person voting takes place from 8 a.m. - 11 a.m. at annual meeting on Sept. 14. If the on-site meeting is canceled in September due to the pandemic, there will be no on-site voting, and results of the early voting will be final. 

Each year, one board member from each of the three districts is up for election. The expiring terms in 2022 are currently held by Kenneth Crowder (District 1), Jim Biermann (District 2) and Gary Mullen (District 3). Members interested in becoming candidates should review the cooperative's Bylaws, especially Article IV "Directors" for more information about the duties and responsibilities of the position. Potential candidates should review Article IV Section 4 about the qualifications for director candidates. District representation is based on the permanent residence of the candidate.
