  • Incumbent Candidate status vs. New Candidate status;
  • Previous voting record, if any;
  • Positions on issues that are of importance to the community;
  • Positions on issues that are of importance to Local 675 and its members;
  • Accessibility and overall relationship with Local 675.

Elected Officials and policy makers decide on issues that affect our lives each and every day. The Union’s ability to provide for its members and their families rely on its ability to influence decisions, make sure they’re made in-line with Union beliefs, and bring value to our industry and our members. It’s important that every member understands the collective value of being politically proactive and engaged, and most importantly, the value of our collective vote.

A politically engaged and informed membership is vital to the continued success of the Plumbers and Pipefitters UA Local 675 far into the future.

With that said, Local 675 would not only like to ask for your vote, but ask that you inform your family and friends, and ask for their support and vote as well.

Mail-in ballots will be received by July 26, and Primary Elections will be held on August 13, 2022.
