Posted: Wednesday, March 27, 2013
A judge with the Court of Indian Offenses has upheld the results of an election that was held by Seneca-Cayuga Tribe of
Oklahoma in June 2012.
Tribal members voted for a second chief, a secretary-treasurer and other posts.
But the winners were never seated due to a challenge by the tribe's election committee.
Judge Tom Walker ruled that the committee acted outside of its authority by disputing the election, The Miami News-Record reported. He directed the committee to certify the results.
