Palmer, AK – Voting is now open to members for the 2020 MEA Membership Election. This year MEA is encouraging members to vote online with their SmartHub account and have their voice heard! Weekly prizes will be awarded to our members who vote online. Election packets, which include information about the election, your ballot, and a return envelope, were also mailed out on Friday, March 27, 2020 to all members. Please make sure if you vote by mail that you sign the back of the return envelope for ballot verification. Ballots will not be accepted from envelopes that are not signed. Online voting closes on Monday, April 20 at 5:00 p.m. Mailed-in ballots must be received (not postmarked) by April 20.


This year’s election includes proposed bylaw changes, an advisory vote and two District Board Seats. Not all members will be voting on a Board candidate in this election, only those residing in the Susitna West or Susitna East districts.

Annual Membership Meeting Postponed


Please note the Annual Membership Meeting has been postponed. In a Special Meeting held on Friday, March 20, 2020 the MEA Board of Directors unanimously voted to postpone the Annual Membership Meeting (scheduled in April) until the CDC says it’s safe to hold large gatherings again. Members will receive an official meeting notice when a new date is set. This means that in-person voting will not be available for this election.


For questions regarding the election and your ballot, please contact our Election Overseer’s Help Hotline at (855) 761-9111.
