RE: PBA Election
The 2003 Patrolmen’s Benevolent Association
(“PBA”) election has been concluded with the tabulation
of all the ballots by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”).
Below is the breakdown of all the citywide
and borough races.
We want to thank you for taking the time to participate in this
important process. The AAA informed us that the average turnout
for a union election is 30%, while the turnout for the PBA 2003
election was over 53%, far greater than the average. We will continue
our efforts to involve all members in the important work of the
union.
On a more personal note, we want to thank you for your loyalty
and support over the past four years. Over 70% of the membership
expressed approval of the direction this organization is heading
under the current leadership. This mandate sends a clear message
to elected officials and others that we speak with one voice.
This PBA administration will continue to fight hard to improve
levels of compensation, working conditions and respect for our members
— all of whom deserve nothing less.
Now that the election is behind us, we must continue to stand
as one. Difficult negotiations lie ahead with the City and other
new challenges to this organization and its membership will likely
emerge. Only in unity will we be able to achieve our goals and confront
these challenges.
Finally, we want to thank the PBA Teller’s Committee and
its chairman, John Curtis, for all the hard work in conducting the
election.
Fraternally,
Patrick J. Lynch
President
