Nomination Deadline for Local Council Elections

Each year at our Annual Chapter Convention, New Orleans DSA elects a new round of officers to the Local Council, the highest leadership body in the chapter. The Local Council works to help set, maintain, and carry out the principles, policies, and strategies enumerated within our chapter's bylaws and by our chapter's General Membership, and helps manage the chapter's day-to-day affairs between General Meetings.

This year's Local Council Elections will be held at the end of June (exact date/period TBA). All dues-paying members in good standing are eligible to vote in this election and may nominate any other member(s) to any of the following eight seats*:
