National Elections
The ballot counting is complete, and we have the results. Nick Daniels has been elected as NATCA President, and Mick Devine as Executive Vice President. A big thank you to everyone who participated in the election process. ZSE had an incredible 86% voter turnout, which is something we should all be very proud of. Nationally, the turnout was approximately 40-50%, with around 800 more votes cast in the runoff than in the initial election. The new term for both the President and Executive Vice President begins on November 4th.

Construction on the new ramp will begin on Monday. This will affect the front of the building outside the lockers. I’m not exactly sure what till be closed off other than that door, I’m sure there will be signs all around.
