[QUOTE="PiedmontSteward, post: 1250965, member: 42270"] Steward appointments should be posted on any and all union bulletin boards in the local's jurisdiction. Keep in mind, these can take up to a week to be printed, mailed, and disseminated. Provisions for elections might be able to happen with that language under the by-laws ("typically elected") but these things take time to setup (nominations, negotiating when/where/how to do so at each barn) and make happen. They've been in office two days. Give 'em a :censored:ing break. Now, if spring is around the corner and there hasn't been any movement or notice on the issue.. then they need to be held accountable. Also -- just being the devil's advocate here - - it wouldn't be out of bounds to assume that the stewards that have been appointed in this interim period are going to have a "leg-up" on any contenders by already having had some time to build a rapport with the members. But appointing interim stewards wouldn't be unethical, as the local needs stewards in order to work for the members. [/QUOTE]
