MEMORANDUM**


6
Local 803, United Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners of America, AFL-CIO ("Local 803"), appeals the district court's order of a new election of officers.  The district court ordered a new election concluding that the Local had:  1) violated Sec. 401(c) of the Labor Management Reporting and Disclosure Act ("LMRDA"), 29 U.S.C. Sec. 481(c) by failing to provide a sufficient time for campaigning prior to the election,1 and 2) violated Sec. 401(e) of the LMRDA, 29 U.S.C. Sec. 481(e), by failing to notify every Local member of the nominations and election.2  We reverse the judgment of the district court and the order of a new election.


7
The district court found that the Local did not provide sufficient time for campaigning and violated Sec. 481(c) primarily because the Local chose to hold the nominations and election on the same night.  The court determined that this combined nominations-election did not provide a sufficient period for campaigning based on its further factual findings that the members of the recently chartered Local were unfamiliar with one another, and that the work hours of Local members were inconsistent with the hours chosen for the combined nominations-election.


8
Nominations and election on the same night are permitted by regulation, 29 C.F.R. Sec. 452.65,3 and nothing in the record supports the findings of the district court that Local 803 members were unfamiliar with one another or that the hours of the combined nominations-election were unreasonable.


9
The district court held that Local 803 violated Sec. 481(e) by failing to notify all members of Local 803 of the nominations and election.  As long, however, as a union has made reasonable efforts to maintain an accurate mailing list and to contact its members of an upcoming election, the failure to notify every single member does not violate the LMRDA.  See Reich v. District Lodge 720, 11 F.3d 1496, 1502 (9th Cir. 1993).  We conclude that the record reveals that Local 803 made sufficiently reasonable efforts to maintain its mailing lists and contact Local 803 members.  Absent any violation of the LMRDA in the mailing of notice, the district court erred in ordering a new election.4


10
The district court's order and judgment, as amended, is REVERSED.
