Right after these results were announced, board chair Rebecca Logan retrenched on transparency reforms and guided the board into making the election of board officers SECRET. Logan last year pulled off a surprise take over and was elected board Chair with the support of IBEW Union backed directors. By this secret process these 2009 officers were appointed: Rebecca Logan, Chair, Jim Nordlund (IBEW-backed), Vice-chair, PJ Hill, Treasurer & Alex Gimarc, Secretary.
Of interest in these results: The IBEW Union had ALL the money in this election. There were no ads or mailers for pro-consumer candidates at all! Yet only 150-373 votes ( 1.4 - 3.5% of those cast) separated the slates.
