During NACo’s 2021 Annual Conference in Prince George’s County, Md., delegates from member counties will cast their votes for a new executive leadership team and new policy positions for the American County Platform. Following are candidate platforms from three candidates and the vote totals for each member county. The number of votes assigned to each county is based on a formula that awards one vote for every $1,200 (or fraction thereof) paid in NACo dues.

County delegates must be present at the Annual Business Meeting, set for Monday, July 12, to cast their vote.
