What if I believe I have performed the necessary 30 hours of such unpaid staff work, but the station records don include me as a member?
A. First try to resolve this with the station management who supervised the unpaid staff work you performed. If there is still a dispute, you can appeal to the Local Election Supervisor, who will hear from both sides and issue a decision on whether you are eligible to vote in this election. Remember, if you are not eligible to vote in the staff election, you can qualify to vote in the listener election by contributing $25 to the station before the record date, or perhaps seeing if at least three of your unpaid work hours qualify as listener volunteer work under station management supervision.
