Special Election
AAPA is conducting a special election to fill the president-elect vacancy on AAPA’s Board of Directors. In accordance with the AAPA Bylaws, the immediate past president fulfills the duties (but not the office) of president-elect until a new president-elect assumes office. Once elected, the new president-elect will immediately assume office and serve the remainder of the unexpired term before serving subsequent terms as president-elect (beginning July 1, 2022), president, and immediate past president.
 
AAPA encourages all eligible voters to engage and participate in the Special Election. To learn more about the Special Election please visit our FAQs page.

I'm asking permission to release them--don't see why it would be denied.  Expect them here tomorrow, or an explanation from me why not.

Ok, an update: the questions are going to be released to PAFT members only, via email, sometime over the next day or so.

I am not paying AAPA these days so I can't vote.

Curious who is involved though and what their respective agendas are.

I won't come back to AAPA until/unless they develop a spinal column and some transparency.

We seem to have a lack of cohesion and representation of the majority of PAs and some CYA stuff going on.

Still tiptoeing around the 900 lb purple elephant in the room - Graduated Independence vs death of the profession.

Thanks for posting! Reading the answers, my instinct was to vote for him, but my gut told me to check here first!

Gotta say, the review and endorsement process surprised a lot of us. There's a couple of really strong candidates running, and picking just one was not easy.
