Ballots for the Proposed Amended and Restated Bylaws were sent via ElectionBuddy to all eligible voting members as of February 15, 2026.
The full text of the proposed bylaws is available within the official ballot distributed through ElectionBuddy. Members have one full week to review the document and cast their vote, which provides ample time to carefully read and consider the proposed changes.
If you are an eligible voting member and did not receive a ballot, this is most likely due to an email delivery issue. Please contact us immediately at admin@texaschess.org so we can verify your eligibility and resend access.
Every eligible member has the opportunity to vote, and we want to ensure no one is left out due to technical issues.
Thank you for your participation in this important decision for the Texas Chess Association.
