The board also oversees asset allocation of the pension fund's investments. Under the California Constitution, the CalPERS Board has exclusive authority to administer the CalPERS Pension Fund.

Ballots will be mailed August 31 and votes must be received by October 1. Only eligible active public agency members will be able to vote online, by phone, or by mail.

The candidates for public agency member position are:

Taylor represents state members on the board while Feckner represents school members.

A public random drawing will determine the order of the names on the ballot. The drawing will be held on June 5 at 9:00 am at CalPERS Headquarters, Lincoln Plaza North, 400 Q Street, Room 1160, Sacramento, CA.
