Any dues-paying member who has been a member in good standing for 1 year or has unanimous consent of the sitting Board of Governors may run for these positions. Self-nominations, along with a brief biography, must be sent to elections@miopencarry.org

You or someone else who is a dues paying member may nominate you. A second dues-paying member is required by our Bylaws to second your nomination. The Election Committee will email an electronic ballot and instructions on how to vote no less than 7 days and no more than 15 days prior to the annual membership meeting. Nominations close on July 7th, 2023 at 11:59:59 PM. No nominations will be accepted after July 7th 2023 or from the floor of the meeting.

Voting
In person voting will begin around 12:30 PM on July 22nd, 2023.  Online voting will begin on July 10th 2023 and run until July 16th, 2023 at 11:59:59 PM.   July 17th to Jul 21, 2023 will be used to verify e-ballots vie the email you received the ballot link in.

Note: you will receive a separate email with a link and online voting instructions on July 10th, so watch for that.

Members having business to bring to the annual meeting must submit those agenda items to the Secretary prior to July 16th, 2023 at 11:59:59 PM.  Biographies and nominations will be available in the 2023 elections facebook group for members only. LINK to the Group to request access:

There are 3 Board of Governor’s positions up for election.  Note: the way the board works now is that you are elected to the Board of governors and then the board once seated votes on who will handle the positions of:

President
Vice President
Treasurer
Secretary

These are the Officers of the Board of Governors.   All other governors are seated in Board Member at Large positions. This Board member is not an officer of the organization, but as a Board Member holds the same measure of vote as any other Board member of the organization.  The person holding this position is expected to attend monthly Board meetings, which are scheduled by consensus of the Board. These meetings typically run approximately 30-60 minutes.  Board Members are also expected to check their email regularly and participate in inter-meeting discussions and decisions that happen via email.
 
Eligibility to Vote
A member in good standing is entitled to vote at a meeting of the members of Michigan Open Carry, Inc. A member in good standing is one who has paid all required fees and dues and is not suspended or terminated, at the point voting is opened to the membership.
