All of the ballots have officially been sent. Now, we're just waiting for more to be returned.

After two weeks of the month-long PDGA Elections7,103 members have cast their votes to help select the next two members of the PDGA Board of Directors, as well as several State and Provincial Coordinators. That's up 1,734 from our Week One update.

The PDGA sent ballots to 51,791 members, putting the current participation rate at 13.71%. While that is an improvement on 2019's 12.99%, we're still short on the marks from 2018 (15.39%) and 2017 (15.3%). How about we put those numbers far in the rearview mirror this week?
