Electronic ballots for the 2022 State Bar of Michigan elections were emailed Friday, May 27, with online voting ending at 11:59 p.m. on Wednesday, June 15.
There are contested races for the Judicial Tenure Commission and the Board of Commissioners in Districts H and I. All active members of the State Bar will receive a ballot for the Judicial Tenure race. Unless attorneys addresses on file are in one of the districts where there is a contested race, they will not receive a ballot for any other race.
Voting is conducted online. Beginning on May 27, Michigan lawyers will receive an email message with a link to their personal ballot for the race(s) they are entitled to vote. Members should not forward this email as it is personal ballot information.
The e-mail will come from sbmelection@electionservicescorp.com with the subject "Vote Now in the 2022 State Bar of Michigan Election-E-Ballot enclosed." The voting site is secure and offers the same level of privacy and anonymity as voting by mail. The system prevents anyone from voting more than once.
Anyone with questions should contact Marge Bossenbery at mbossenbery@michbar.org or 517-346-6327, or Carrie Sharlow at csharlow@michbar.org or 517-346-6317.
