Voting for Tentative Contract Underway
Active members of UUP, who were members in good standing as of June 7, 2023 (the date the State/UUP tentative agreement was reached), are eligible to vote.
Emails went out on Thursday Aug. 10 with the subject line “Vote now: UUP – 2022-2026 State/UUP Tentative Agreement.” That email includes a link to an online elections system, administered by MK Election Services, and an individualized access code that will allow you to vote.
All eligible members of UUP were also sent a postcard mailer to their home address with the same voting instructions and access code.
If you believe you are eligible to vote and you have not received an email, please search your spam folder and other filtered folders.
If you believe you are eligible to vote and have not received either an e-mail or a post card with voting instructions and your access code by Aug. 17, please call MK Election Services at 203-403-8401 or email uupcontract@mkelections.com.
