As the holiday season approaches, so does APA's 2008 election. Your
Elections Committee reminds you to take the time to get to know this year's
candidates and to vote.
If you have an e-mail address on file with APA, an e-mail containing online
voting information arrived in your inbox on December 22. Paper ballots were
mailed that same day. Even if you don't have an e-mail address on file with
APA, you can still vote online once you receive your paper ballot. The
deadline to cast your ballot is February 5, 2008.
The Elections Committee strongly urges you to consider the candidates and
vote online, but whichever mode you choose, the most important thing to do is
to vote.
Here are six reasons why the Elections Committee supports online
voting:
Information on the candidates appears in the December 7, 2007, issue
of Psychiatric News and online at<http://pn.psychiatryonline.org/content/vol42/issue23/>.
