(Update: Video Now Available) Executive Board Candidates Forum Scheduled for May 16

(Update, May 19, 2025): The video can be viewed here and the slideshow can be followed here.

US Chess and the Elections Committee will host an Executive Board (EB) Candidates Forum on Friday May 16, 2025, at 8 p.m. CDT/ 9 p.m. EDT via zoom.

The EB Candidate Forum has been recorded and is posted on the Elections page.

Elections Chair Mike Nietman will ask all five candidates the same questions as well as share some upcoming elections deadlines for those in attendance or watching the recording afterwards.

While US Chess members may join the forum on zoom and watch live, they will be muted and will not be able to ask the candidates any questions during the forum. The five candidates' statements are available now, and you are invited to read them before the forum. 

Follow the instructions in this video to register to vote, and you can check if you are already registered here.

Thank you for participating in US Chess Governance by making your voice heard.
