Rigged Election In SEIU 1021 By Global Election Services? Members Demand New Election
Members in California SEIU Local 1021 with over 50,000 members charged that the 2016 election was rigged and that there should be a new election. The company that run it Global Election Services and one of the owners John Scott Matthews had computers that broke down and software that did not work. They also were unable to give accurate information about where the votes came from even days after the election. The members also charged that Roxanne Sanchez who is the president and an international executive board member of the SEIU International kept the election a secret and many members did not get their ballots. Only 3500 people voted out of the 48,000 ballots sent out.
