LAC Election Results
Founded in 1951, the
Lithuanian-American Community, Inc. (LAC) represents Lithuanian-Americans through its over
70 chapters across the United States. Every
person of Lithuanian descent is considered to be a member of the organization. Recently, voting rights in LAC elections have been
extended to include persons of non-Lithuanian descent who are married to LAC members. During its existence, the LAC has steadfastly
pursued the following objectives:
1. Promoting active participation in American society;
2. Fostering and maintaining Lithuanian culture and heritage; and
3. Aiding in the strengthening of democracy in independent Lithuania.
The activities of the LAC are carried out by
the National Executive Committee, which is chosen by sixty members of the Board of
Directors, elected for a three-year term.
The following are the election results to the LAC Directors of
the Board:
