Votes for President on-line or by postal mail must have been received on or before midnight (CST) Feb 15th, 2012.
All members were strongly encouraged to vote on-line or by postal mail to avoid disappointment if conditions for the nets on Feb 15th (CST) were poor, and conditions were up and down like a yo-yo on the 75M net, but all who wished to cast a ballot were able to do so.
All individual members holding a 100-Point Certificate on any Century Club net were eligible to vote for President. To vote for an Area Director, members must reside in the call area for which that candidate for Director was running. Only individual members may vote and a 100-Point Certificate number and the band/mode on which it was held was required when voting. Clubs and Special Event calls, even if holding a 100-Point Certificate, were not eligible to vote. All ballots were verified against the Club membership roster.
