CREATE A LOCAL STATION BOARD & A PACIFICA NATIONAL BOARD THAT WILL MEET THE MOMENT & THE MISSION!

You need to know Why, who, what, how:

1. Despite, and maybe especially because of, the current court dispute about the secretly-voted bylaws, your participation in this election is vital!
2. Listeners who donated at least $25 between July 1, 2025 and June 30, 2026 can participate in nominating candidates.
3. Look for an email from "Pacifica Foundation" or a text from 877-225-8712, with your personalized nomination link. Not found? Immediately email: NES@pacifica.org and copy PacificaMissionCoalition@gmail.com.
4. Under the new, quietly imposed bylaws, there are high nomination thresholds and peculiar restrictions. Our committed, experienced, diverse team needs your support BEFORE nominations close on Saturday night, July 11.
5. You can only nominate one candidate per contest and the single form must contain ALL your desired nominees.

PLEASE NOMINATE ALL OUR CANDIDATES SO WE CAN HAVE WORKING MAJORITIES LOCALLY & NATIONALLY! Remember: you can only use your Nomination "ballot" once—so check off all our candidates' names!
