Elections Elections will be held for board positions. Regular positions are held for 2 years, and deputy positions are 1-year posts. A deputy position is a great way to test the waters. Email us ASAP if you would like more information. Members from outside of Stockholm are particularly encouraged to join the board! Our meetings are almost always online these days and we want to strengthen the society in other regions. Eligibility and registration Active (i.e. paid-up members, not lapsed) members are eligible to attend, and members who have joined/renewed more than 30 days prior to the meeting may vote.
