IMPORTANT!
 
USCF EXECUTIVE BOARD ELECTION- all USCF members age 16 or over may vote.

Ballots will be in the June issue of Chess LifeThe May issue contains an outrageous attempt by the current administration to influence the election, a financial "report" by Booz and Dubeck whose main purpose appears to be to attack Executive Board candidate Bill Goichberg. 

This "report" would be inappropriate even if true, as Chess Life is required to be neutral, but it is far from correct.  Click here for details.

For more information on this critical election, see www.checkmate.us.  Please vote for Bill Goichberg, Joel Channing, Robert Tanner, and IM Greg Shahade.
