2021 Executive Board Election Results

There were 3,961 registered voters this year, of which 939 were sent online ballots and 3,022 were sent mail-in ballots. 1,265 ballots were returned either electronically or by mail, and all mail-in ballots were certified as valid by US Chess staff. Two were eventually invalidated by the counting team because more than three people were voted for on the ballot. 

Vote Totals

Randy Bauer: 1072

Kevin Pryor: 1031

John C. Fernandez: 972

The Election Committee reminds members that these results are unofficial until certified by the Delegates at the Delegates' Meeting to be held August 7-8, 2021. The Election Committee expresses its gratitude to all candidates in this year's election. Service on the Executive Board requires a substantial investment of time. The federation is stronger for all those willing to serve on the Executive Board.
