The election will occur at the DPRG monthly meeting on January 11th, 2020. This meeting is also the club's annual meeting, where plans are discussed. It is very important that members vote and attend the January meeting. The by-laws require that a specific percentage of members vote to make the election official.</div>
<div style="direction:ltr;font-size:14px;line-height:1.4em;color:rgb(68,68,68);font-family:Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;margin:0px 0px 1em">A slate of candidates is proposed below at the recommendation of the present officers. This slate is composed of members who have indicated interest at recent club events. Any member can come forward and be added to the list of people considered for the various officer’s positions. If you want to explore holding office, an overview of officer duties can be found at <a rel="noopener noreferrer" style="color:rgb(37,133,178)" href="https://www.dprg.org/officer-duties/" target="_blank">officer duties</a>. You can also get additional information by talking to an existing officer at any monthly meeting or RBNO. If you want to throw your hat into the ring, please let me know quickly at email “secretary at dprg dot org” so you can be added to the ballot.</div>

The email should contain the text “I vote for the proposed officer slate”, or “I vote for the following people for office”, or similar text that allows our volunteer election vote counter to determine your intentions.</div>
<div style="direction:ltr;font-size:14px;line-height:1.4em;color:rgb(68,68,68);font-family:Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;margin:0px 0px 1em">Members can also vote in person or proxy at the January 11th DPRG meeting. If voting by proxy, you should signal your intention to vote by proxy by sending an email to the person that you are giving control of your vote and to “election at dprg dot org” so the person holding your proxy and the person tallying votes knows of your intention. The person holding the proxy must then vote.</div>
