Except for the Chair, the Law Day Director, and the Law Day Director-Elect, the members of the Board of Directors shall be elected at the Annual Meeting each year and shall assume office on January 1 of the following year for a term of one year. 

Voting shall be in person at the Annual Meeting of the Membership. The Chair shall present the slate of nominations to the Membership and shall conduct an election for each open position in the order presented on the slate, beginning with the position of Chair-Elect. Any member in good standing may nominate a candidate from the floor. A candidate for a position must receive a majority of the votes cast to be elected. The Chair shall ask for nominations from the floor of additional candidates who meet the eligibility criteria for each position in order. If no other candidate is nominated for the position, the Chair will declare that the slated nominee is elected by a unanimous vote. If one or more other candidates are nominated from the floor, the Secretary will confirm their eligibility, and the Chair will call for an election by secret ballot. 

The Secretary will distribute paper ballots to each member present and voting to cast a vote for one of the candidates for the contested position. The Secretary and the Treasurer will collect and tally the votes and report the results to the Chair, who will announce the winner of the election to the Membership. If no candidate for a position receives a majority of the votes, the two candidates with the most votes will compete in a run-off election, which will follow this same procedure until one receives a majority of the votes cast. This procedure shall be followed until elections have been completed for each officer and director position to be filled.
