ALEXANDRIA –The final slate of candidates is set for DTC Communications’ election of directors next month. Directors will be elected in the Alexandria, Liberty, and Smithville exchanges.

Incumbents Bennie Curtis, Randy Campbell, and Ronnie Garrison are running unopposed in the Alexandria, Liberty, and Smithville exchanges, respectively.

Voting for directors will take place at the cooperative’s annual meeting on Saturday, Sept. 15. Gates to the DeKalb County Fairgrounds in Alexandria will open at 11:45 a.m., with voting from noon until 4 p.m. The business meeting will begin at 4 p.m. or once the last person in line at that time has voted.

Only DTC members may vote, and each member must present identification. For a single membership, only that individual may vote. Either member of a joint membership may vote, but not both. In the case of a business membership, a business affidavit is required.

The last day to make changes to your membership or to be eligible to vote in the 2012 election will be Thursday, September 6.
