    Dear Fellow INFORMS Members,

     

    I am writing with a final reminder and request that are critical to the future of INFORMS. The future leaders of INFORMS will be selected at the close of the current election. As you may have noticed, this year we have a great slate of candidates!

     

    Historically, eligible members have voted in INFORMS elections at about a 20% rate. While this rate is typical of nonprofit associations, I am confident that we can do better. Please help us beat our previous 20% response rate!

     

    If you have not voted yet, take a moment to do soIf you have already voted, thank you. Also, please feel free to remind your INFORMS friends and colleagues to vote.

      

    Links to the candidates' information are available on the online ballot. If you would like to review the bios and vision statements of the candidates prior to logging into the ballot, please click here: https://www.informs.org/About-INFORMS/Governance/INFORMS-Election. The voting website is fully optimized for mobile phone voting as well.

     

    If you do not have your election login information, please click on the link below, enter your email address that is on file with INFORMS and your election login information will be emailed to you.

    The deadline to submit your ballot is Sunday, September 30, 2018 at 11:59 PM central time

     

    Thank you for taking the time to help INFORMS with these important decisions. I am looking forward to seeing many of you at the INFORMS 2018 Annual Meeting in Phoenix this Fall. We are expecting a great conference and record attendance!

    Nicholas G. Hall - 24th President of INFORMS
