Active KEA members interested in attending the 2023 NEA RA may nominate themselves to be elected as statewide delegates. The RA is the
gathering of the decision-making body of the NEA consisting of more than 8,000 delegates representing state and local affiliates nationwide.
Active members will elect state delegates in an online election scheduled for March 1-31, 2023.Retired and Aspiring Educator members will choose their delegates to the NEA RA in separate elections.
 

Nominees will run and be elected in either the “East” or “West” region. Your region is determined by the county where you work. (See the list below.) You may run and vote only in the appropriate region. Members who wish to be on the ballot should complete an official nomination form (see above) and return it to KEA.

 

KEA reserves the right to review and edit the information you submit for accuracy, spelling and grammar. Only the first 25 words of biographical
information will be included on the ballot. You may submit a photo with your nomination form, but it is not required. If you choose to submit a
photo, a hard copy is acceptable if it is submitted with a hard copy of the nomination form. If you choose to email an electronic copy of the form or
submit your nomination via the KEA website, your photo should be submitted in “jpeg” format.
 

Properly completed nomination forms may be submitted three ways:
• Via email to CCC@KEA.org

• Fax to (502) 227-9002
• Mail to Kentucky Education Association,
ATTN: NEA RA Election, 401 Capital Avenue,

interests there. All active members of KEA are eligible to vote online at KEA.org between March1 and March 31, 2023.
