Results of Balloting on Issues at the 2021 Annual Meeting

5/20/2021

 
Thank you to everyone who participated in the annual meeting and to everyone who voted! Fifty ballots were cast.

Some ballots did not include votes on an issue or two; these were counted as abstentions without questioning whether they were oversights or intentional abstentions. Complete tabulated results appear to the right.

We worked to resolve problems for a few members who had difficulty voting, mainly due to compatibility issues with the JotForm software. To the best of our knowledge, everyone who sought to vote was ultimately able to cast a ballot in some manner. Let's hope our next round of secret balloting takes place in person, with pencil and paper!

By large margins, you approved the budget, candidates, and bylaw revision proposals recommended by the Board. The Board thanks you for this vote of confidence.

Congratulations to incoming Board members Stacey, Cynthia, and Jodi! And also, congratulations to Elaine, who is elected to remain for a full term in her role as Secretary to the Board. We rejoice in your willingness to serve!

Guy Newland, UUFCM President
