Nominations for Board of Directors have already closed, ending January 31.

Elections Process

Elections will commence at 9:00 AM Central following the 2019 Supporters Summit; you do not need to be present at the Supporters Summit in order to vote. Those who have purchased a voting share will be emailed a voting link. Elections will last for seven days, closing on February 28 at 11:59 PM. Winners of the elections will be notified on March 1st, and the new Board of Directors members will be announced prior to the start of the season opener on March 2nd.

Voting Shares

All votes will require the purchase of a membership voting share in accordance with our bylaws. Voting shares will be sold for $25, and are available for sale on the web store and in-person at the Supporters Summit. There are 1,000 voting shares available. In addition to a voting share, one must be a member of an affiliated Supporters Group either through holding a season ticket in the Supporters Section at Allianz Field (sections 20-24), or through the purchase of an individual membership.

Those voting in the election will be required to provide their full name, mailing address and telephone number; this is legally required for the organization and we cannot offer exceptions. Those who wish not to share this information will not be allowed to vote in the elections.

Voting shares purchased this year will not expire and will entitle the share holder to voting rights for future years. As a thank you to those who purchased a voting share the first year they were offered (2016), they will be granted a non-expiring voting share for 2019 and beyond. Those issued a free share will need to provide the same contact information as those purchasing a voting share - failure to do so will result in the forfeiture of the share. Each shareholder is entitled to one vote annually, regardless of the number of voting shares purchased.

The money collected from voting shares will continue to be used to further the mission of Wonderwall and their Supporters Groups, including to provide funding for supporters groups’ initiatives and funding match day components such as flags and tifo.

We will have a team on-site to sell both memberships and voting shares at the Supporters Summit, shares and memberships will need to be purchased prior to the end of the event.
