All 2023 voting members of AERA and all 2024 voting members who joined or renewed by January 10, 2024, have the right to vote in the election. Voting members received an email from AERA’s independent election vendor on January 18 with a personalized link to access their ballot. The ballot is customized to include applicable election(s) according to the voting member’s AERA, division, and/or SIG membership(s). The personalized link is also being provided in periodic reminder emails to those who have not yet voted.

“We strongly encourage all eligible members to cast their ballot,” said AERA Executive Director Felice J. Levine. “The ballots include high-quality candidates across positions. We encourage you to think carefully about each office and choose the members of the association you want to lead AERA and its divisions and SIGs into 2025 and beyond.”

The results of the election will be reported in the February issue of AERA Highlights and will be posted on the AERA website.
