Instructions for Nominations by Petition for candidates for Vice President, Member at Large of the Council, Nominating Committee Members, and Editorial Boards Committee Members will be available in the September 2023 issue of the Notices of the AMS.
The 2023 AMS election opens on August 15, 2023 and closes at 11:59 PM U.S. Eastern Time on November 1, 2023. AMS members can vote online or by paper ballot. The election process is carried out by Survey & Ballot Systems, a company that specializes in running society elections. On or shortly after August 15, 2023, instructions for voting online will be sent by email to members who chose that option. That same day, traditional paper ballots will be sent to all other members. Please note that starting with the 2024 AMS Election, paper ballots will no longer be made available. The 2024 AMS election will move to a fully electronic model. Further information about the election and the candidates will appear in the "From the AMS Secretary" section of the September 2023 issue of the Notices of the AMS.
AMS members who have chosen to vote online will receive an email message on or shortly after August 15, 2023 from the AMS Election Coordinator, Survey & Ballot Systems:

Traditional paper ballots and the email regarding online voting instructions are sent in mid-August. Members should expect to receive paper ballots by the middle of September.
Members who receive a paper ballot are provided the URL of the voting website and unique login credentials: an AMS Member Code and an E-signature (election pass code). Members who receive voting instructions by email are provided the same URL and unique login credentials. Members who receive voting instructions by email also receive a unique embedded login link which allows them to go directly to their ballot on the voting website without having to type in their login credentials.
Yes. Your ballot is preprinted with the information you need to log in to the voting website. You need to enter your AMS Member Code and E-signature (election passcode)
If you want to vote online, you will need your login credentials. If your current email address is on file with the AMS as of August 1, then you can go to the voting website and click on the "Need help logging in?" link. If your current email address is not on file with the AMS, or if you want a paper ballot, then a replacement paper ballot will be issued. Contact Survey & Ballot Systems by phone (952-974-2339) or email and they will send a replacement ballot to the mailing address the AMS gave them for you. To arrange to have a ballot mailed to a different address, you must contact the AMS Sales & Member Services Department by email or phone: 800-321-4267, extension 4129 (from the U.S. and Canada); or 401-455-4129 (worldwide).
AMS sent an email message in early May to all members with an email address on file, telling them their current voting preference, and giving them an opportunity to change it if they wish by late July. Members without an email address on file will be sent a paper ballot.
The directions for updating your voting preference are as follows:
The results of the election will be announced in late November on the AMS website.
