The Empire Electric Association service area is divided into seven districts from which directors are elected. Directors are elected by the members. Each member has one vote in the election, either at a meeting held for such purpose or by mail ballot. Each member is not limited to vote on director nominees in their own district. They can cast votes for all director districts open for election.
Director nominations are made by written petition only (on forms provided by Empire). Not less than fifteen members living in the nominating District must sign the nomination petition.
