2023 CoServ Board Director Candidates
The CoServ Electric Board of Directors is democratically elected by CoServ Members. Board Directors oversee the operations of the cooperative and work to represent the best interests of their fellow Members. While Director candidates are nominated by Members in the district where they reside—to ensure that all geographic regions within CoServ’s service territory are represented—they are elected at-large. This means all Members can vote in each district race. This is your chance to have your voice heard.
Candidates can only spend their personal funds and the amount is not to exceed the aggregate amount of $500. Candidates are required to file initial and final Disclosure Reports. Candidates are also required to file weekly Disclosure Reports if campaign expenses are incurred during that period. The Disclosure Reports must describe how campaign contributions are spent or used.
