Just when you thought election season was over, it’s just getting started here at the New Hampshire Electric Co-op. The Co-op is a nonprofit governed by the democratic process, which means that as a member you have a voice in the governance of your electric utility.
The Co-op is governed by the Board of Directors elected from and by you, our membership. If you are interested in running for one of the open director seats or becoming a part of the process we want to hear from you.
Each year, a Nominating Committee recommends candidates to run for the board. We are currently looking for any and all members who are interested in becoming a part of this integral piece of the Co-op board election. Also, if you have an interest in becoming a member of the board of directors, now is a good time to start making preparations.
Nominating Committee
The Nominating Committee reviews the qualifications of potential candidates seeking election to the Co-op’s Board of Directors and nominates a slate of candidates to run for open seats. This Committee is an important part of the cooperative way of doing business. If you are interested in being part of the Nominating Committee you are encouraged to apply today. For more information or to apply for consideration, please email nomination@nhec.com, or call Maida Lessard at (603) 536-8861 with any questions.
Board of Directors
In May of 2027, Co-op members will vote to fill any open seats on the 11-member Board of Directors. The Co-op encourages broad representation from a diverse group of candidates from all parts of our service territory. We urge all qualified members to consider running and start making preparations for candidacy today. For more information about how to get your name on next year’s ballot, email nomination@nhec.com, or you can call Maida Lessard at (603) 536-8861.
We hope you will consider getting involved, whether as a member of the Nominating Committee, the Board of Directors or an active voter in the upcoming board election in May.
Thank you,
The Co-op
