We hold "elections" a few weeks after build season for 4 positions: President, VP of Public Relations, VP of Outreach, and VP of Organization. The new board takes power one week after the conclusion of our FRC season (either our last regional, or if we make it to champs it is after champs) however they are expected to work under the current board to learn everything they can.

The board is actually selected by a committee of mentors who interview each candidate, and the elections have no actual decision making power as they are simply a recommendation to a committee of mentors. For example if two people are running for president and one gets more votes than the other (student 1), but the board views the candidate with the lower amount of votes (student 2) as better suited for the position, student 2 would be selected.
