SWATA Election Results

The polling for the 2010 SWATA election is closed. The ballots have been counted and I wanted to let you know the results of this year's election. Before I give you the winners I want to thank each of you who voted for taking part in the association. We are only as good as the people who participate in the association and the easiest way to get involved/participate is to vote. This year we had an all time high number of voters as 439 of you voted. The electronic ballot has been a hit and as we move forward we will almost certainly continue to use this method because of the ease of use.

Without further delay here are your newly elected SWATA Executive Board members are:

SWATA Vice President - Mitzi Laughlin

SWATA Secretary - Lorna Strong

SWATA Arkansas State Rep - Ken Cole

Congratulations to all three new board members. I am confident that under their leadership our association will continue to grow and better meet the needs of the membership.

Finally you may notice that the new SWATA Secretary is Lorna Strong and Lorna is our current parliamentarian. Because of that the SWATA EB has appointed a new parliamentarian and that will be Natalie Steadman of Texas Tech University.
