MEA Board Elections Candidate Forum

Please join the Susitna River Coalition for our annual virtual MEA Elections Candidate Forum. Board candidates will speak to member-owners about their views on the future of energy in Alaska and their commitments to the communities they would be serving. This has been a well-attended and well-viewed event in the past, and we encourage anyone wanting to know more about the candidates to join.

This year, there are nine candidates running, and there are two at-large seats available. All members will be able to vote for their top two candidates. The top-voter winner will serve a four-year term, and the second top-voter winner will serve a three-year term. Information and bios on each candidate will be mailed out along with ballots at the end of March and will be available on the MEA website. Voting will end at MEA’s annual meeting held on April 25th, 2023.

Electing responsible board members who will increase engagement with the member-owners and speak out against harmful projects such as the Susitna-Watana Dam is important. The MEA board makes decisions about where our energy comes from. This impacts rates, reliability and safety.
