VICTORY!!!
It is with the utmost enthusiasm and pride that we announce the victorious election of Jon Schleuss as president of the NewsGuild-CWA.
Jon defeated incumbent Bernie Lunzer, 1,979 to 1,514.
You all played a big part in this. NewsGuild of Greater Philadelphia doubled its participation in this election rerun, casting 157 votes — 153 of those votes were for Jon.
Thank you, thank you, thank you.
The future of the NewsGuild is in tremendous hands. We all have a lot of work to do. What Jon demonstrated was how hungry he is for this job because he wants to improve all of our lives.
Now let’s get to it!
In solidarity,
Diane and Bill
