The winners of each race are shown below. You can view the official election results by\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/vote.electionrunner.com\/election\/SIETm\/results\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">clicking here<\/a>. The winner(s) of each race will take office on November 1, 2024 and will serve until October 31, 2026. In addition to the 4 seats on the Board of Directors up for election, there is a vacant 5th seat on the Board (previously held by William Mantle before his appointment to Treasurer earlier this year). The Board opted to wait until after the election and to appoint the person with the next highest number of votes to fill that seat until the end of the term. Thank you to everyone who took the time to vote and and an even bigger thank you to all the candidates who ran for office to help their fellow employees!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\"
