A Word of Caution re: STRS election for retired seats

From John Curry, April 10, 2009

Some retirees are writing in the name of Jim Stoll on the "retired" ballot. Even though CORE understands the popularity of Jim Stoll, the fact is that retirees can't vote for Jim as he is not a candidate for the "Retired" open seat (2) on the board. Jim can only be voted for by "active" educators!

Also, when voting by paper ballot, make sure to blacken (black pen or soft lead pencil) in the box associated with the candidate and DO NOT USE AN "X" OR A CHECKMARK IN THE SQUARE ON THIS BALLOT. This has led to some confusion among voters. If you vote using the phone option, your vote can't be misconstrued.
