X12 Announces Summer 2026 Officer Elections

X12 officer elections are conducted electronically three times per year. Electronic elections ensure:

• Consistency between groups so that member representatives and materially interested non-members alike understand the process and recognize it as reasonable and fairly administered.
• Preservation of voter privacy in elections.
• Timely notice so all qualified candidates can apply for a position.

The Process

The table below lists the open positions for this election cycle. Each position is for a 2-year term, commencing June 18th of 2026 and ending at the conclusion of the Summer 2028 Standing Meeting.

If you’d like to be considered for one of the officer positions listed below, review the qualifications listed on the online application form to be sure you meet the established qualifications. If you meet the qualifications, submit the online application form by midnight ET on Tuesday, May 19th, 2026. All those interested in running for an officer position, including incumbents, must apply to be considered for the candidate slate. Keep in mind that in-person attendance requirements for officers were reinstated in 2024.

After the application period closes, applications will be vetted based on corporate and committee policies to ensure each applicant is qualified to run for the position. All qualified applicants will be included on the ballot slate. The election ballot opens on Thursday, May 21st, 2026 and closes at midnight on June 4th, 2026. If there are no qualified candidates for a position, it will not be filled.

Election results will be announced at the conclusion of the election process.
