Hi fellow CPR members. It's great to see that the West is leading in voting in NPR's board election. However, a quick glance shows that only 6 California votes have been cast, so far. I hope you'll all make it a point to vote. It sends a clear signal to NPR that managers in our region care and are interested in what happens at NPR INC, and that our collective voice matters. If you haven't completed your balloting, I urge you to do so. Thanks, Frank From: areps [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Twanna Clark Sent: Friday, July 31, 2015 9:04 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [areps] NPR Board Election Voting Reminder and "Honor Roll" To: NPR Authorized Representatives From: Michelle Shanahan, Senior Associate General Counsel and Assistant Secretary Twanna Clark, Board Liaison Megan Glass, Counsel Date: July 31, 2015 Re: NPR Board Election Voting Reminder and "Honor Roll" Attached please find a list of all Authorized Representatives who have voted in the 2015 Board election as of 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time, today, Friday, July 31, 2015.
