2004 IEEE Annual Election Process
The 2004 IEEE Annual Election process is underway – candidates' names have been announced, and statements of candidacy and
websites for the information of you, as the constituent, are in preparation.
If you would like to be a part of a candidate e-mail list that will be controlled
by IEEE staff, and not the candidates themselves, then please click the following
URL: http://www.ieee.org/elections by 13
August to be subscribed. Please include your name and IEEE member number. Your
contact information will NOT be shared with the candidates.
In addition to the IEEE Annual Election web page, to which individuals may link
to find out about who's running for various positions and what their candidate
statements contain, there will also be a message sent in late summer by IEEE
staff on behalf of all candidates who will be on the annual election ballot.
This message will not only remind members to vote, but will also provide a
short message
from each candidate as well as the link to his or her Website if one is available.
To reduce or eliminate the perception by members that electioneering is being
used to SPAM the membership, allow candidate messages to come through that
may contain viruses, or that candidates sending their personal e-mails
to members have an unfair advantage over other candidates who might not
have that capability, the IEEE Board of Directors has taken seriously the
concerns voiced by its membership. In so doing, candidates have been
reminded about IEEE policy relative to electioneering. In order for the
candidates to reach out with information on how they plan to serve the
membership, a standardized way for you to be contacted has been developed.
You will be contacted by IEEE staff with information, statements, etc.,
regarding the annual election. If you wish to be sent such information,
you will need to be subscribed to the mailing list that will receive such
correspondence in the future.
