Election information

THE postponement of the game last Saturday vs Forfar Athletic, sadly also brought the cancellation of our planned hustings for the election of a Sonstrust Representative on the Club Board. The Trust Board have however decided that a less formal setup than that of a hustings would be a better alternative:

• Candidates will be available at the Trust table in the Community Suite for members to ask them questions
• Copies of their candidate profiles will also be available
• The Sonstrust will also be releasing a short video interviewing the candidates, which we plan to release on social media as well as sharing a link on this website.

As previously publicised, members can vote in one of 3 ways, please try to include your membership number however you choose to vote:

1. For members who have provided the Trust with an email address, they will be able to vote via an online election platform. Members will be sent a link to this, along with a link to the interview with the three candidates, as well as each of their candidate profiles
2. For members who haven’t provided an email address, they will be sent a paper ballot by post, which they can fill out and return by post to:Sons Supporters Trust, The C&G Systems Stadium, Castle Road, Dumbarton, G82 1JJ
3. Alternatively, any member wishing to do so will have the opportunity to cast a paper ballot at the stadium at the Trust table this Saturday (29th Feb vs Raith Rovers), where they can meet and question the candidates. This can also be done on the 14th March (vs Falkirk) both days between 13:30-14:55

• Members may vote only once
• The poll will now close on Monday 16th March at 17:00. Members should ensure their ballots are cast by then, and that members voting by post send their ballots in time. The results of the ballot will be shared shortly afterwards
• Any Dumbarton fans who have not yet become members of the Trust have until 17:00 on Friday 28th February to submit an application and vote in this election. Any new members submitting applications after this will not be entitled to a vote.
