As is customary at the SEA/SEIU Local 1984 Annual Convention, there were candidates running for available Board of Directors’ seats. This year there was one seat available for Director representing Retirees – incumbent Director John Amrol (Chapter 1), who ran unopposed, will be serving another three-year term. A second race for a Director seat with a one year term was also a one-candidate race. Cynthia Perkins (Chapter 19) will be serving in that position.
There were six candidates for four Directors’ seats for a three-year term. Following the election process, Tammy Clark (Chapter 45); Heather Fairchild (Chapter 16); Kevin Myers (Chapter 37); and Cheryl Towne (Chapter 9) will be serving as Directors for the next three years.
There were no candidates for the one vacant seat for Director/Private Sector.
At the conclusion of the convention, General Counsel, Mike Reynolds officially swore the Directors in. You can watch the brief ceremony here.
