In accordance with Article XVI, Section 12 of the IBEW Constitution and Article III Sections 8(p) and (q) of Local 26 By-laws; because no candidate received a majority (50%+1) of the votes cast, a run-off election is required for the position of Vice President of IBEW Local 26. The run-off will be held between the two candidates receiving the highest vote counts. In the IBEW Local 26 election, held on June 14, 2019 the two highest vote counts, for Vice President, were for:
Larry R. Greenhill Sr.
Richard Wilkinson
The run-off election shall take place on Friday, July 12, 2019 beginning at 9:00 a.m. at the Local Union Hall located at 4371 Parliament Place, Lanham, MD 20706. Either candidate for Vice President may be present or have an IBEW member as an observer present at the counting of the ballots. The election shall be conducted by mail ballot. All members in good standing shall be mailed a ballot no later than June 24, 2019. Please keep the Finance Office updated on all address and phone number changes. Ballots received by the post office after 10:00 a.m. on July 12, 2019, will not be counted.
