Don’t Miss Our Election of LTDO Officers
It’s election time for the Libertyville Township Democrats Executive Board officers. The election will take place during our Monday, May 6, meeting at 7 p.m. We’ll meet at the Libertyville Civic Center, 135 W. Church St., Libertyville.
We will be voting for the following positions:
Chairperson
Vice Chairperson
Secretary
Treasurer
If you wish to run for an office, you have two options. You may declare your candidacy in advance via email to the Libertyville Township Democrats at libertyvilledems@gmail.com by Monday, May 2. Your second option is to declare your candidacy “on the floor” the night of the vote. It is recommended that you declare ahead of time so voting members can be prepared and cast an educated vote. Terms are for 2 years.
The following board members have declared their candidacy for re-election:
Chairperson Jennifer Banek
Vice Chairperson Jennifer Khan
Treasurer Jack Troester
LTDO Secretary Margaret Clark is not seeing re-election.
Only elected and appointed Precinct Committeepersons (PCs) in good standing--dues have been paid--are eligible to serve as officers and vote, per current bylaws. PCs will cast one vote for each ballot cast in the PC’s precinct by the Democratic primary voters in the most recent Primary Election. In other words, if 75 people voted for you to be a PC, you will cast 75 votes in the LTDO election.
A quorum (25 percent of elected and appointed PCs) is required to hold these elections, so please attend if you can! Each PC will receive a ballot listing the PC’s precinct and number of votes based on the last Primary Election.
Additional details on the election will be emailed to PCs before the vote. If you have any questions about the process or the responsibilities of each position, please email libertyvilledems@gmail.com.
