A total of 356 teachers nominated themselves for seats on UTLA’s 350-member House of Representatives, triggering internal elections for UTLA policy-setting body that that have not been required in recent years due to low numbers.
There will be elections held in 22 of the 32 electoral districts (see list of nominees in contested areas here). In 10 out of 32 of the districts, there were fewer nominations than seats (see the full list of nominees in uncontested areas here). Ballots for the elections will be sent out shortly and must be turned in by December 11, according to UTLA’s website.
