to organize the slate of officers. Meetings may be attended virtually.
KEA’s Bylaws state that each member is entitled to one vote. Joint members are jointly
entitled to one vote. A ballot is voided if a person not listed on the account signs the return
envelope. KEA members uncertain about the name(s) listed on their accounts are encouraged
to call KEA to find out how to update their accounts. The deadline for any changes to be in
effect for this year’s election process is February 26, 2025. Business Accounts (corporations,
partnerships, and sole proprietorships) should annually update their list of officers/owners
authorized to vote on behalf of the account.
