Annual Election Candidates
The voting membership of IEEE annually elects officers that serve on the top-tier IEEE governing bodies. The candidates are drawn from recommendations made by divisional and regional nominating committees, as well as candidates nominated by petition. In addition, the names will include candidates for positions in the IEEE Standards Association, IEEE Technical Activities, and IEEE-USA.
The order of candidate names indicates no preference and has been pre-determined by lottery.
Balloting for the 2020 IEEE Annual Election has now ended. Results will be available following the certification of results by the IEEE Tellers Committee on 12 October.
