Dear ARRL member,

This message serves as a reminder that voting is underway for the 2025 ARRL Pacific Division Election.

You may vote in the election if you were a Full member in the Division as of September 10. Full membership requires a member to hold an unexpired Amateur Radio operator’s license or reciprocal operating authorization issued by the United States.

If you meet the eligibility requirements to participate in the election, you should already have received an email message from Election Services Co. with instructions to access candidate statements, the electronic ballot, and to vote online. Eligible Full members were also mailed a postcard with the same information for voting online, and instructions for requesting a paper ballot if you would prefer to vote by mail. Please note that only one vote per member will be counted.

The email message sent to eligible members includes the following header:

Be sure to check your Inbox, and folders for spam and junk, to make sure you do not miss this message.

If you are eligible to participate in the election, but have not received an email or postcard from ESC, please contact the helpdesk at Election Services Co.:

Online voting ends at noon (ET), November 21, 2025.
