The Screen Actors Guild, which represents the vast majority of actors in American film and television, has announced the results of their elections to the National Board Of Directors. The poll results were released on 18 September 2008, with approximately 25 per cent of the Guild’s membership in the Hollywood and New York divisions casting a vote. The run-up to the election had seen bitter infighting taking place between the two primary electoral slates – MembershipFirst, which was in control of the union before the election, and Unite For Strength, which advocated several policies that were diametrically opposed to that of the former slate. UFS was strongly supported by the New York division, which saw MF as being a Hollywood-centric faction that cared little for events outside of Tinseltown, whereas MF still had a large support base in Los Angeles. The press release from the SAG, including the results, is attached after the jump. Our analysis of what this means for the union, and for their ongoing contract negotiations with the Alliance Of Motion Picture And Television Producers will follow after the reactions over the weekend, on the SciFiNow Blog, located at http://blog.scifinow.co.uk.
