It is that time of year again, time to vote. Not only do Americans get to vote soon for the next POTUS, Pass members from around the world get to vote for three (3) board of director seats. This year there are 2 Regional; USA\/Canada & LATAM. The 3rd is an open, meaning any candidate can assume this seat. <\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n

Why it is important to vote <\/span><\/h2>\n<\/div>\n
\n
These seats are important to everyone, not just the region they represent. Each board member is assigned a portfolio to manage, those portfolios have a great impact on the community. For us locally the big portfolios are Chapters & SQLSaturday, these hit closer to home than some of the others. You need to vote so that our voices are heard and carried through. <\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
