ASC Elections

Eligible farm voters have onJ^ five days left in which to circulate and sign nominating petitions for ASC community committees. August 17 is the final date petitions may be filed at the Rappahannock County ASCS Office. Mail elections are set for the second week in September.

“I want to re-emphasize to farmers who are eligible to vote that nominating candidates by petition is of prime importance. If six or more eligible candidates are nominated by petition in an ASC community, no other names will go on the ballot. In the past, the incumbent community committee also had the privilege of making nominations. Now, a community committee may nominate only if fewer than six eligible candidates are nominated by petition-and the committee may nominate only the number of candidates needed to make up ja full slate of six nominees,” H. S. Barksdale, Chairman of the Rappahannock County Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Committee, said.
