SB QST ARL ARLB017
ARLB017 Eight Section Managers returned to office

In the only contested race in the current ARRL Section Manager
election cycle, Oregon Section Manager Randy Stimson, KZ7T, overcame
a challenge from Kevin Hunt, WA7VTD, 549 to 461 votes. ARRL Field
and Educational Services staffers counted the ballots and verified
the results May 18 at League Headquarters. A veteran ARRL Field
Organization leader, Stimson previously served as Oregon SM from
1987 until 1998. Last July, he accepted appointment as SM after
Oregon Section ARRL members voted to recall then-SM Marshall
Johnson, KK7CW.

Seven other sitting ARRL SMs faced no opposition in this election
cycle and were declared re-elected. They are Sharon Harlan, N9SH,
Illinois; Jim Sellers, K9ZBM, Indiana; Bill Woodhead, N1KAT, Maine;
Rudy Hubbard, WA4PUP, Northern Florida; Glenn Thomas, WB6W, Santa
Clara Valley; Paul Gayet, AA1SU, Vermont, and Don Michalski, W9IXG,
Wisconsin.

New two-year terms of office begin July 1, 2004.
