The UDW Principal Officers and District Board Elections have been rescheduled to ensure we are in compliance with both the UDW Constitution and the AFSCME election rules. Ballots will now go out to you on April 28, 2025, and the vote count will take place at our San Diego office on May 29, 2025. Newly elected officers will be sworn in on June 1, 2025, and will serve a term of 3 years.
We have extended the deadline for requesting a paper ballot. If you wish to request a paper ballot mailed to you, please contact: udw@electionbuddy.com by April 16, 2025.
Any member in good standing may protest the conduct of the election for valid cause. All election protests should be filed with the Election Committee no later than 9:00 a.m. Sunday June 8th, 2025, in writing and mailed directly to: Election Committee at 4855 Seminole Ave, San Diego, CA 92115, faxed to 1-619-550-3105 or emailed to ElectionCommittee2025@udw.org. The decisions of the Election Committee concerning all eligibility challenges are final.
If no candidate for these positions receives a majority, there will be a run-off election for that office. Ballots for the run-off will be emailed or mailed on June 13th, 2025, and tallied on July 14, 2025.
