29 CFR 452.61 - Elimination contests--local unions.

  • Section Number: 452.61
  • Section Name: Elimination contests--local unions. 
    (a) A procedure in a local under which nominees compete in an 
elimination process to reduce the number of candidates in the final 
balloting is also part of the election process and must be conducted by 
secret ballot.
    (b) When such an elimination process is used it would be 
unreasonable for some nominees, such as those selected by a nominating 
committee, to be exempt from the process since they would thus be given 
an unfair advantage over other nominees.
