Tension Rises in Baltimores Union Election: President McNair Challenges Taylors New Election AnnouncementStancil McNair, president of Baltimores largest AFSCME local, disputes a new election announced by his opponent, Trevor Taylor, on social media. Despite being sworn in last August, McNair has been unable to perform his duties. Taylor, who lost the previous election, has been running the union and is pushing for a new election. A judicial panel ordered a new election, but no specific date has been set. Taylor claims credit for improved working conditions and pay, while McNair alleges Taylor is trying to take credit for these achievements. The unions judicial panel ruled that social media messages from Inspector General Isabel Mercedes Cumming constituted employer interference, but she was cleared by the Baltimore Board of Ethics. The AFSCME Local Union Election Manual requires notice of an election to be mailed at least fifteen days before the election, which has not yet been done.
