The 2024 Cuivre River Electric Cooperative annual election is underway. This year’s election includes the selection of four board directors from a slate of 13 candidates across four districts.
More information about the backgrounds and views of each board candidate can be found in the August 2024 Current Times issue, also available here. Candidates were asked to respond to several questions and their responses have been summarized for your review. Members are eligible to select one candidate for each district.
The ballot order for all candidates was drawn randomly by the Nominating Committee. An asterisk (*) next to a candidate’s name indicates that they are a current officeholder.
Voting options
Vote online or by paper ballot by August 19 — if you have an email on file with CREC, you should have received an email with a link that directs you to the login page of the official 2024 Cuivre River Electric Cooperative Ballot. Or you can go directly to the page by typing directvote.net/crec/ directly into your web browser (not a search engine) to access the ballot. Candidate information is available online for your review during the online voting process. You will be asked for proof of your membership when you login — a copy of your bill will have the information you need. Enter your base member number only, do not type in any numbers after the hyphen. If you vote online, you will receive confirmation of your
vote. Voting with a paper ballot is also available by mail if ballots are requested no later than August 9. Call Survey & Ballot Systems, our election partner, to inquire about a paper ballot: 952-974-2339 or email support@directvote.net. You
can access the online voting site until 11:59 p.m. Central Standard Time on August 19. All paper ballots must be received by the close of business on August 19. Please note: Paper ballots may not be delivered to CREC offices or brought and cast at the Annual Meeting.
Vote at the Annual Meeting on August 22 — if you attend the annual meeting at our Troy office, 1112 E. Cherry St., you
will receive your ballot on-site. Registration is from 3 to 4 p.m. While members are welcome to attend the annual meeting on August 22, the meeting will also be streamed live online for you to view at https://cuivre.com/2024annualmeeting.
