** We do not have results for the HEA Delegates to OEA-RA. There was an issue identified in the election. One member who properly declared their candidacy for the OEA Representative (OEA-RA) position was inadvertently omitted from the ballot. As a result, the ballot for that position did not accurately reflect all eligible candidates. you may have received an email from Mary Kay acknowledging that someone had been left off the ballot.
To ensure a fair and valid election process, HEA will re-run only the election for the OEA-RA position. The elections for Leadership and NEA-RA are not affected and will stand as conducted.
We will rerun the election next week for OEA-RA. The election will begin at 7:00am on Monday, January 26th, and end at 5:00pm on Tuesday, January 27th.
If you have questions about the process, please reach out to the Elections Committee.
