At the close of the nomination period for the 2026 election and by-election of NASA executive board members, each open position received only one nomination. As per the Election of Executive Officers Policy passed by NASA members at the 2024 Fall General Meeting, since each of these candidates is uncontested for their position no vote will be required and these members are declared elected by acclamation. They will assume their respective positions after the NASA Annual General Meeting on June 3.

Your Chief Electoral Officer,
