No opposing candidates were nominated at the meeting, which was the regular October session of the Representative Assembly.
Additional nominations may still be made, via petitions signed by not less than 5% of the Local’s membership in good standing as of October 1, 2007. All such petitions must be in the hands of the Local Secretary-Treasurer by 6:00 p.m., October 31, 2007. If no other contestants file petitions by the October 31 deadline, the nominees of the RA will be declared elected at that time. They will begin their three- year terms of office on January 1st.
Complete election rules have been sent by the Local to all New York Guild shops, for posting on unit bulletin boards. Anyone wishing a copy of the rules should contact Local Headquarters at (212) 575-1580.
