SAG-AFTRA local elections unopposed is questioned by members

http://deadline.com/2015/07/sag-aftra-elections-unopposed-members-angry-1201473401/
(Local Union members complain about elections)

First, if you miss the deadline to run as a candidate in your local state. Then, you've lost out. Second, you have to be a paid up union member to run as a candidate. Third, You have to be nominated by paid up members & those who sign your petition have to be paid up as well. Read your election rules & regulations over at the SAG-AFTRA website. 
 
New Mexico candidates ran unopposed probably because the candidates running against them didn't meet the requirements. Like any election, start early if you want to run as a candidate. Most procrastinate until it's too late. In 8 US states -- Board members ran unopposed.
 
Also, SAG-AFTRA announces everything on their website including deadlines to submit as a candidate for elections. It's all there people...,
