How many candidates can a state association nominate for HOSA officer positions?

A state association can nominate up to four candidates for HOSA officer positions. This limit is established to ensure that a reasonable number of candidates can be considered, while also maintaining the integrity and competitiveness of the election process. By allowing four nominations, state associations can represent a diverse range of interests and backgrounds among their candidates. This structure also fosters leadership development opportunities within the organization, as aspiring leaders have the chance to step forward without overwhelming the selection process with too many nominees.
