Official Rules for CWMC 2014 Awards Here are the rules for registration and voting for the year ending December 31, 2014.
Summary of Changes: The only changes to the rules this year are to the start dates for the voter registration and voting periods. Voter registration will be reduced to two months, November and December 2014. Voting will begin on March 4, 2015 (first round) and April 4, 2015 (final round).
In order to remain on the voter list each year, you must be an active member of C. W. Monger’s Message Board. Board management purged all inactive members from the board recently. If you were purged for inactivity, then you were also purged from the voter list. In order to vote, you must register on the CWM message board, make at least one post, and then register to vote.
If you were registered to vote for the 2013 election and participated in the election process by either nominating or voting in either of the two rounds of voting and you remain an active member of the CWM board, you remain on the voter list and do not have to register again. If you did not participate, then your name has been removed from the list and you must register again. To see if you are on the list of registered voters, click the following link to see the list:
