Thank you to all members who voted in the  2024 Spring Special Election to fill the vacancy for the residual term of the Active Police Member Trustee from the Rank of Investigator, Patrolman, or equivalent rank ending November 30, 2024.

The election took place via online voting from April 26, 2024 thru May 15, 2024.  Per the independent election firm that administered the election, the results are as follows:

  • Officer Junae D. Weathersby:       292 votes

 

Detective Merck received a majority of the votes.

Per the election rules, Any person wishing to contest the results of the election may do so by providing an affidavit to the Fund’s office signed by the person or persons contesting any election and setting out the reasons why the declared result was inaccurate.  The affidavit must be received within ten (10) days after the results of the canvass have been given the candidate(s).  For this particular election, the 10 day period ends, and therefore any affidavit must be received by, 5PM on Monday, May 27, 2024.
