As a financial cooperative, Western AgCredit provides its member stockholders the opportunity to have a voice in Association governance by participating in Board of Director and Nominating Committee elections annually. Members can nominate and vote for qualified candidates who have a desire to work with Association leadership to help Western AgCredit fulfill its vision and mission.
Annually, the Nominating Committee conducts interviews and proposes candidates for the open positions on the Board of Directors. Ballots can include candidates from each of the 4 regions, including incumbents seeking re-election. The Nominating Committee also identifies two to three nominees from each region to be considered for the following year’s Nominating Committee.
Below is a general election timeline. Once the Director and Nominating Committee candidates are selected, a brief bio will be provided, and dates added to the timeline.
