OEA-R delegates will be elected through October 21 by online and mail-in ballot. Look for election information by email and US mail.  Please support candidates from NEOEA-R.

OEA-R members should look for an email and/or a postcard “Vote now in the OEA 2024 Elections” from “Ohio Education Association <help@yeselections.com>”.

Everyone will get a postcard, envelope or an email with an explanation and instructions for requesting a paper ballot.

The email and the postcard or letter provide an “Election Code” and a “Voting PIN” along with a link to the voting page. If your ballot has not been placed in the US mail by October 15, please vote online no later than 5:00 PM on October 21, 2024.

Here are the Steps to Vote Online:

1. Go to the voting website: https://www.ohea.org/retired
2. Enter your Election Code and Voting Pin in the fields
3. Click on Continue and follow the voting instructions

• A change this year is the shortening of the election time periods. Elections will run 21 days and not 30.
• If you are choosing the mailed ballot option, please vote and return your ballot right away. The move to 3 weeks, has several advantages, including housing preparation for delegates, allowing the delegates to attend all district representative assemblies, and it reduces over all cost of the election.

Please support the following candidates from NEOEA:

Delegates attend both the Fall and Spring OEA Representative Assemblies. On the day before, the OEA-R Delegate Assembly meets at the OEA or STRS building to carry out the business of OEA Retired and for a briefing with the OEA officers and reports from the OEA-R Advisory Council. Delegates from NEOEA also attend the Fall and Spring NEOEA RAs.
