If an eligible member is unable to appear in person at the polling place during the hours designated for voting, the member may obtain an absentee ballot from the Membership Secretary in advance of the election.

Absentee ballots must be requested by Sunday, January 5. Contact Phyllis Lee, Membership Secretary, at phyllis@nrpca.org to obtain an Absentee Ballot.

How voters access the online ballot:

• A voter notice is delivered to each voter, which contains the voter’s unique voter link (a website address that contains an access key and takes the voters straight to the ballot). The notice is delivered by email and/or text message.
• Alternatively, voters can access the ballot by using a web browser to visit the access link, https://electionbuddy.com/ballot, where they are prompted to enter their access key.
• An access key (a unique, random combination of 16 individual alpha-numeric characters) is required to access the ballot.
• The online vote is a Secret Ballot — voter choices cannot be linked to voters, it is anonymous.
