[QUOTE="alexfarms, post: 712736, member: 8677"] Members don't get a vote directly for the board. Members vote for delegates. Each member gets a number of votes based on the number of calves they have registered in the last calendar year. The more calves you register, the more votes you get. Board members are nominated by a nominating committee. The nominating committe is selected by the current board. I have voted for delegates in the past, although I didn't send in my vote this year because I got a ballot for the Nebraska delegates and I now live in Kansas. Yes I have filed a change of address with the AHA, a couple years ago. Yes they send my mail to my Kansas address and they put my Nebraska address on all my pedigrees, but they do put my Kansas address on all of my owned cattle on the pedigree lookup on the AHA website. No I didn't contact them to clear this up, life is too short. If I get ticked off enough sometime I may call them. My suspicion or fear is.....My address can't be changed on my official lifetime membership(which has been in my family for over 50 years), because memberships can long be transfered...so they may want to charge me for a new membership and charge me a transfer fee on each of my animals just because i moved. Why go there? I did allow my name to be placed in nomination for a delegate when I lived in Nebraska once and no I was not elected. I did go to that meeting though and I went to the "Breeders Forum" and I raised my hand to ask a question and someone in charge said something like...yes, I guess we can answer a question from a nondelegate.
