Shreveport NAACP to hold new election following challenge Deborah Bayliss, Shreveport Times UP NEXT
Now comes word that a new election for the officers and members of the executive committee will take place and be conducted by the national office.
A letter from Quincy Bates, national director of governance and engagement, dated Feb. 1, states that the ongoing concerns regarding the Shreveport branch election process led to the national office intervention for the purpose of instituting corrective action.
The letter also lays out the bylaws stating the national office shall have authority to intervene at any time during the three-month period leading up to the branch election. Such authority includes suspending the process and instituting corrective action to ensure that the rights of all members are protected.
