[IL-Talk] State Convention Registration and registration to vote

[davant1958 at gmail.com]

Good morning all,

Our state convention is on October 30, 31 and November 1. The affiliate and
our student division will have elections on the morning of November 1.
According to the constitutions, only dues paying members, who are present
can vote in affiliate and chapter/division elections. So please register for
the convention by October 16. 

Further, since we are having a virtual convention, you will need to register
the number you plan to vote from by October 9. Please register the number
you will be voting from at http://www.nfbvote.org by October 9. You will be
asked to put in your first name, last name, phone number from which you are
voting and the affiliate convention. This system is familiar to all of us as
we used it during our national convention.  

Remember, your vote will only be counted if you vote from the number you
entered at http://www.nfbvote.org. On November 1, you can vote by calling
and putting in your choice or you can text your choice to the number. Once
everyone who wants to vote has entered their information by October 9, I
will provide you with the number to call for voting purposes. You will have
plenty of opportunity to write it down or put it in your phones. Please help
members you know who do not have a computer register to vote and register
for convention.

It would be very helpful if everyone could register to vote and register for
convention long before the deadlines. Thank you for your cooperation.
