LA Fire and Police Pension Board Runoff
Please Vote!!!
The ballots have been counted in the election for the Retired Police position on the LA Fire and Police Pension Board. A total of 3344 votes were cast and the top two of nine candidates were Garrett Zimmon with 1650 votes and Don Keith with 730. Since no candidate received 50% +1 vote, there will be a runoff.
This is a crucial election. Our retirement benefits are under attack and it’s important to have strong representation from the elected retirees on the Board to protect our benefits.
The runoff election will have a quick timeline:
Ballots will be mailed by the City Clerk on May 16.
They must be returned to the City Clerk by May 31.
They will be counted on June 3.
Out of state members in particular must make sure to keep their eyes open for the ballot and return the ballot before the end of May.
Do your homework and vote. Our future benefits depend on it!
