Nominate Yourself for Interim Elections Officer

The general elections will have to be held soon after the strike ends. This means that the two Elections Officers positions need to be filled, as there is one vacancy and the other EO will be out of town for the rest of the summer.

Nominations are now open, and the positions will be filled on a pro tem basis at the Friday August 3 Executive Committee meeting. Elections Officers come up for yearly re-election at the GMM immediately following the conclusion of the general elections. Therefore, this nomination period would be to supervise the general elections only.

To nominate yourself for the position, email Dan O’Hara at recsec.cupe3903@gmail.com by 5 pm on Thursday, August 2. A description of the position is below.
