The IAPE Elections Committee is holding a debate next week between the two candidates running to serve as our next union president. The debate between Jodi Green, Content Ops Specialist in Princeton, and Stephen Nakrosis, Rewrite Editor in New York, on Thursday, October 15 at 2 p.m. ET via Zoom.

Candidates will answer candid questions from the committee during the first 15 minutes of the debate and the following 20 minutes will be open to members to ask questions. Members who aren’t able to attend can submit questions for the candidates to the Elections Committee. 

Before the debate, you can learn more about the candidates by going to the IAPE website and clicking “Elections Updates” to read the blog posts they’ve written about why they are running for union president.
