VOTE!

The HMEPS 2026 Trustee Election gets underway the week of July 27, 2026!  The independent election administrator is mailing ballots to eligible active employees for the two active trustee positions and to eligible retirees for the one retiree position.  The voting deadline is 5:00 p.m., Houston time, August 21, 2026.  Look for your ballot and remember to vote!

At the April 23, 2026 Board of Trustees meeting, the Board unanimously approved the Trustee Election Plan to have the independent election administrator mail ballot packages to eligible voters the week of July 27, 2026.
There are no eligible voter email addresses on file with the election administrator. Therefore, all ballots and replacement ballots are mailed to eligible voters’ address of record.
If a voter has not received their ballot package by the week of 8/3, they can contact the election administrator’s help desk and a replacement ballot will be mailed to their address of record.
