The Louisiana HBPA is now accepting nominations for Board members and the President-Chairman of the Louisiana HBPA for its election that will take place on March 31, 2011. All nominations must be received no later than December 20, 2010.
The nomination process has been simplified. Below is how to nominate a candidate for election to the Board of Directors and for President-Chairman:
All nominations must be written, be signed, clearly identify the person or persons making the nomination, be unambiguous (clear) as to the member or members being nominated, be unambiguous (clear) as to the position or category of position to which any member is being nominated, and must be received by TrueBallot, Inc. at the address listed below not later than the deadline date of December 20, 2010 for nominations in order for a nomination to be valid.
A candidate may be nominated to run for and may only serve in one elected office.

NOTE: The Louisiana HBPA asks all horsemen who race horses in Louisiana to help them have a good election by making sure that the Louisiana HBPA office has your correct mailing address so you get your ballot as there will be no second ballots handed out or re-mailed as has been the case in the past.
