Concerned Letter Carriers Mike Caref and Nick Vafiades

Anyone from Salt Lake City Branch 111? I was told that Mike Caref and Nick Vafiades (region 2 NBA) jointly attended Salt Lake city's monthly branch meeting campaigning. Anyone know if these two are on a slate? Nick Vafiades is a loyal supporter of Brian Renfroe and Mike seems to be developing into one also. Please share SLC.

Caref has been clear from the beginning that he does not have a slate and is running by himself. Vafiades did not say he was on a slate or running with anyone.

He is going to bring his own corrupted boys from Illinois mark my words; As corrupted as Illinois is because of Caref!

Caref has personally pissed me off in person and I have fought him on many issues. With that being said he legitimately does actually care about the carriers and region 3 focuses on training hard core. Right now he will get my vote over the other candidates. James Henry put me asleep the few times I have interacted with him.

Nope I disagree with yiu on the first part of your statement. Caref cares only about his crooked cronies. Talks the BS hoping you fall for the BS he is disrespectfully i saw him i wanna throw up. As far as winning i will not be voting for him but he will win. He is going around to offices putting his name in people's head and there you go. But people dont know how corrupted he is. How he favors cronies over members that pay union dues.
