DON'T FORGET TO VOTE!!!
June 3 is election day for local candidate and issue contests. For some CUE workers, you may be voting right now by absentee ballot. The Coalition of University Employees reminds all CUE workers to exercise your right to vote and remember to do so by June 3. The polls close June 3 at 8pm and absentee ballots can be dropped off in a marked mailbox at the County building anytime.

For your information, the following candidates and issues were endorsed by the Monterey Central Labor Council, a coalition of 60+ unions representing over 30,000 members and their families, and including AFSCME and AFT, two other campus unions. CUE has not endorsed any of these candidates or issues but is including them here just for your information.
