Voting will take place at school sites from Tuesday, May 27 – Thursday, May 29, 2014.

In case of a tie where there are more tying candidates than available positions, a run-off election will be held.  As always, write-in candidates will be accepted and votes for write-in candidates will be tallied along with votes for declared candidates.  “Winning” write-in candidates will be contacted in order of the number of write-in votes they received, with the write-in candidate receiving the greatest number of votes being contacted and offered the position first.  If several write-in candidates receive the same number of votes, all will be contacted and offered the position at the same time, and if more accept than the number of positions available, a run-off election will be held.
