... but don't tell anybody! Especially SECU members?
✅ SECU published the names of its' three, self-selected candidates for the 2026 Board election on July 10, 2026
✔ On August 4, 2026, SECU confirmed that Julian Hawes and Barry Browning had been nominated by the members to also be candidates for the board.
👉 [Good morning, Barry/Julian, Ernst & Young
validated your petition. Since you validly self-nominated for this
year’s election, your name will be placed on the ballot. Thank you]
✔ On August 6, 2026, the member-nominated candidates - Hawes & Browning - asked when their candidacy would be announced to the SECU membership? [Fairness, equal time... and all that!]
👉 [SECU
will publish the membership notice of the 2026 Annual Meeting on August
28, 2026, which will include the names of the candidates and
information on how to vote.]
😎 A three week wait to let the 3 million members of SECU know they have a choice? Wonder why?
👉 Board "policy" ?
An informed membership? Or... "We'll let you know what you need to know, when you need to know it!"
This is petty and ridiculous. Complaining about 3 weeks? There is more than enough time from 8/28 until the meeting and vote.
ReplyDelete12:20pm The member voting doesn't happen at the October 13th Annual Meeting.
DeleteMember voting starts September 9th ... the week following the announcement of the names of the 2 member-nominated candidates.
Why not go ahead and send the names of all 5 candidates to the members now?
How does waiting help?
How would announcing it early help? What need do the members have for it now? Why don’t the candidates announce themselves.
DeleteYour chances of winning go way up when you campaign abd make people aware that you’re running
2:07pm Hilarious response, but thanks for answering: "How does waiting help?"
DeleteMaking "people aware" can be risky..
SECU should 'Do the Right Thing' ...
