    Designate your voting delegate for NACo's Annual Business Meeting

    The NACo 2023 Annual Business Meeting and Election will be held in-person Monday, July 24 in Travis County, Texas. During the meeting, credentialed NACo members elect NACo officers, set our national policy agenda and conduct other association business. 

    Voting credentials verify a member county, parish or borough’s eligibility to vote and the number of votes available to cast at the meeting. To be eligible to vote, please:
