2026 NYCC Election
IT'S ELECTION TIME!!!
Every year is an election year in the NYCC. The Ballot to go live on October 28th!
This year, the election will be managed through an election platform called Election Runner. All members will receive an email when voting opens with a unique link to vote. There will also be a link to the ballot posted on this page. The platform is secure, and it provides much greater flexibility in administering an election. Since NYCC elections only take place once a year, we determined that utilizing an existing platform would be more cost effective than coding election criteria into the new website.
Voting will end on November 11th, at 5pm.

We need to elect the Board of Directors/Officers who will serve for the calendar year of 2026. This year's nominees listed below, to read their candidate statements, click here
You will be asked to vote for the Nominee or to select "abstain". You must do one or the other.
You will also be asked to vote on a change to the bylaws, increasing the maximum number of board positions from 15 to 17. This simply would provide the board the flexibility to add a position as the Club's needs change.
MOST OF ALL, Thank you for taking the time to vote. Our Club's vitality, indeed viability, is sustained by the Members' active interest in its affairs, and your informed vote definitely represents "giving back" to the Club in a very real way.
