NACo member counties will vote for NACo first and second vice president and on national policies to be included in the American County Platform at the Annual Conference in the City of Baltimore, Md., on Tuesday, July 15.
To be eligible to vote, a county must be a paid member of NACo. Member counties are required to designate one of their elected officials to pick up and cast the county's votes. A county may designate an alternate county official within its county, an official from another county, or its state association director or president to pick up credentials materials.
The credentials documents contain the state and county name, the number of votes for the county, and the name and signature of the person who picked up the credentials form.
If the county is voting by proxy - that is designating its state association executive director or a delegate from another county in the state to cast the county's votes - both the county and the designee must be paid registrants of the conference.
The designee will be required to present proof of registration prior to picking up credentials materials.
Credentials forms were mailed to the chief elected officials of member
counties May 7. After completing the form, please send your Credentials

National Association of Counties, 440 First Street, N.W., Washington, DC,
