NOMINATION MADE FOR EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE SEAT

 

The New York Guild’s Representative Assembly (RA) has named new Hudson News Guild Unit Chairperson Hannan Khan as its candidate to fill the vacant Local Executive Committee seat formerly occupied by Hudson News Unit Chairperson Balal Ahmad, who died in November.

 

Khan was unopposed at the March 1^st RA meeting, following his nomination.

 

Additional candidates for the Executive Committee post may be made via petitions and by not less than 5% of the membership in good standing, and filed with secretary-Treasurer Bill O’Meara by 5:00 p.m. March 8, 2007.

 

If no petitions are filed by the deadline, Hannan Khan will be declared elected at that time.  In the event of a contest, the candidate will run on The Democratic Coalition Slate, and the election will be conducted entirely by mail ballot.
