Hello Members and Friends of the Association,
The following is from James Craigo, Special Projects director at the SFA.
SFA Members, As the Director of Special Projects responsible for conducting the 2022 SFA National Board of Officers elections I would like to thank all the candidates for “putting their names in the hat” to help our organization move forward by running as a candidate for office. Their commitment to serve our fellow Green Beret brothers at the national level is greatly appreciated. The voting has closed for both online voting and mail in ballots. A Mail-in Ballot Teller Committee of six (6) active members of the SFA met on 8 June 2022 and reviewed, validated, and certified each mail in ballot. This information was then documented on an excel spreadsheet. On 9 June 2022 four (4) active members (to include two {2} from the previous Mail in Ballot Teller Committee) met to reconfirm the mail in ballot sheet was correct, there were no duplicate ballots and ever one that voted was eligible to vote as per our *Constitution and our national membership data base. After all ballots (both online and mail-in) were verified as eligible, a vote count was conducted, and the results are as listed below. Results Summary | | | Yes | No | President | Kevin Harry | 307 | | Chris Wilkerson | 240 | Vice President | Curt Lowry | 240 | William Smith | 300 | Secretary | JD Campbell | 525 | 19 | Treasurer | Russ Preston | 510 | 34 | Dir Spec Proj | Chris Bell | 525 | 18 | Dir Ext Comm's | Doug Livermore | 525 | 18 |
I would like to congratulate those that won and wish them all the best as they endeavor to make our organization better and stronger. Regards, Jim James Craigo
