Trustee Election

What is the election for?

Trustees are elected by Trust policyholders to staggered three-year terms. Three Trustee positions are being selected this election cycle.

Why Should I Vote?

The election gives Trust policyholders a voice in governance by deciding who oversees the operations of the Trust.

How do I vote?
