ACT-UAW (UAW Local 7902)
2010 International Convention Delegate Election
Notice of Nominations
Published April 10, 2010 ACT-UAW (UAW Local 7902) is holding an election for its Delegates to
the UAW's 2010 International Convention. The Delegates represent ACT-UAW in all matters at the convention, which
will take place in June. The UAW has determined that each ACT-UAW Unit (New School, NYU) will elect two Regular Delegates,
who will attend the convention, and two Alternate Delegates, who will attend only if the Regular Delegates are unable to do
so. If you are eligible to be a Delegate, you have already been automatically nominated. This is the only notice
of nomination you will receive. To run for any of these Delegate seats, you must
follow the highlighted instructions below. Delegates to be Elected
| You are eligible, and have been automatically nominated, if: |
|---|
New School Unit Regular Convention Delegate (2 seats)

* Member in continuous good standing: A person who has signed
an ACT-UAW membership application, and has either paid dues or signed a dues authorization allowing his or her employer to
deduct dues from his or her pay. This is not the same as a member in good standing, which is a person who
has signed an ACT-UAW membership application, and has not notified ACT-UAW of his or her permanent separation from ACT-UAW's
Units. Nominees must be members in continuous good standing, for the periods listed above; whereas voters must simply
be members in good standing. If you meet the requirements shown above, you are eligible
for election as a Delegate, and you have already been automatically nominated. This is the only notice of nomination you will
receive. To run, you must accept the nomination in writing,
delivered either by mail (we recommend return receipt requested for proof of mailing) or by hand to:
