PHL ELECTION RESULTS
The polls closed this afternoon at 1330 EST for the Philadelphia election. This election was necessary due to the resignation of the previously elected slate of Council 70 officers effective December 31, 2006.
The new elected officers are:
President John McCorkle Jr.
Vice President Grace Jones
Secretary Daniel Sampey
Mr. McCorkle, Ms. Jones and Mr. Sampey will begin their term of office on March 1, 2007. Because this was an election to fill vacated officer positions, Council 70 will remain on its normal election cycle and their terms will expire on June 30, 2008. Please join me in congratulating the newly elected officers and commending them on their willingness to serve the members of their Council.
After the resignations of the former Council 70 officers the MEC appointed interim Council 70 officers pursuant to the AFA Constitution and Bylaws. Those officers, Interim President, Brian Morgan, Interim Vice President Kim Kaswinkel and interim Secretary Joshua Freeze took office on January 1, 2007 and will complete their interim terms on February 28th, 2007. The three interim officers stepped right in and did a more than admirable job of representing the members of Council 70. Again, please join me in thanking them for the time they served.
The complete certified election results are included below.
Thank you,
Mike Flores, President
The US Airways Master Executive Council
