The 2023 IFPTE Local 21 Election Committee would like to announce the results for the Executive Officer election. The Election Committee consists of the following Local 21 members: Muhammad Yasir (Chair), Brianne Elizarrey, Henriette Browne, Mary Lindemuth, Ted Lam, and Treva Hadden.
This was an uncontested race. With regard to uncontested elections, the governing rule is that for an election of officers or delegates which would normally require a secret ballot, the secret ballot requirement ceases to exist when all candidates for union office are unopposed. Accordingly, the Election Committee unanimously voted for the officers listed below to be elected by a vote of acclimation.
