Our organization follows the structure of President, President-Elect, and Immediate-Past President. Terms are for two-years with the membership electing the President-Elect on even-numbered years (last elected on 2020). Unfortunately, we had a President resign 7 months into their term. The President-elect immediately assumed their role and is currently serving the remainder of their unexpired term which is until 2022. The President-Elect seat is currently vacant but our bylaws permits us to fill the seat at our next annual business meeting held in August. The discussion now is, which appears to be 2 different thoughts:
Do we elect a person to fill the original unexpired term of President-elect which would only be a 1 year term until we elect another President-Elect in 2022 (of which they would assume the President seat then and the previous President's term is cut short) or;
Do we elect a person for a 3 year term to fill the unexpired term but also allow the acting President (former President-elect) to complete the vacancy and also serve their original two year term of President which was intended to be 2022-2024.
