The launch of the online voting process in the OLC’s 2017 elections has been delayed due to an unanticipated technical issue. Efforts are underway to get the issue resolved as quickly as possible. Members with e-mail addresses who did not opt-out of the electronic voting process will receive an e-mail when the problems with the online voting process have been resolved. Members without e-mail addresses or who have opted out of online voting were mailed paper ballots. Once the online voting opens, members will have 30 days to cast their ballots.
