Voting in 2014 was a much more manual process!<\/p>\n
As an elder, church delegate, or representative in the Free Methodist Church in Southern California (FMCSC), it\u2019s both your honor and responsibility to vote for the leadership of our conference.<\/p>\n

Voting is performed online from April 20-27 with a second round of voting from May 10-12 for any unresolved business.<\/strong><\/p>\n To vote, you must use your unique delegate email address and voter PIN as provided in your voter information email. If you did not receive an email with your email address and PIN, please contact us immediately.<\/p>\n After you provide your voter identification, you will then have the opportunity to vote for slates of nominees in ranked-choice manner. This means you will be able to select candidates in order of preference. If you do not think a candidate is suitable for the position they are nominated, you may elect to not select them during the voting process.<\/p>\n Once the minimum required votes are received we will tally the votes. If there are not enough votes to assign winners we will contact you with instructions for how to perform additional rounds of voting.<\/p>\n
