As of 2017-Jan-20, the National Labor Relations Board plans to mail out the ballots on February 3rd. Ballots must be mailed back to the NLRB no later than 10 a.m. on Feb. 24. Subsequently, ballots will be counted and the vote will be determined by the majority of those who voted.
It is imperative that everybody vote in this election. The outcome will affect thousands of Duke graduate students for years to come. How can you guarantee that the NLRB will mail you a ballot? Update your home address. The NLRB requires that Duke provide the home address that is used for the distribution of W-2 forms. There are two ways to update this information: (1) Visit the MyInfo section on the Duke@Work website, at https://work.duke.edu, by midnight Tuesday, Jan. 24. Logging in will require multi-factor authentication as well as a SAP password. (2) If you are unable to log in, call Duke Human Resources at (919)-684-5600. Tell them you need to update your home address. They will ask you a few questions to verify your identity, but it should only take five minutes. This is the option I had to use when I found out that I had not been registered for SAP. (3) What if you did not update your home address in time and it is incorrect? You can still ask someone at the old address to forward you your ballot. If it is close by, you can drive over and pick it up.
