Once again, this year, we are using a highly secure online voting website called ElectionBuddy, which ensures the utmost safety and confidentiality of your votes. 

On Sunday, September 15, an email message containing a unique ballot link with a random, secret access key will be emailed to current professional, emeritus, and student members. (Associate and concurrent members do not participate in NAKHE elections.) The "From" name on emails to voters is "National Association for Kinesiology in Higher Education."

The voting deadline is 11:45 pm Eastern Time (US & Canada) on Tuesday, October 15.

To vote, voters click on a website link in the email message, access their ballot with their unique access key, and enter their choice for President-elect, Vice President-elect, and Secretary. Rest assured, all votes are confidential and cannot be seen by others, including election administrators. Once voters submit their ballot, a confirmation email is automatically sent to them. Election administrators may view the election results only after the election has ended.

Please be on the lookout for the email containing a unique ballot link and cast your vote! Your opinion matters!
