The Picayune Rancheria of Chukchansi Indians has held their regularly scheduled elections. Eliminated, or rather not re-elected were Reggie Lewis and Chance Alberta.
These two individuals were PRO-disenrollment in this latest disgraceful round of terminations.
There is a possibility that these new officials, Harold and Dixie, may not let this current round go through.
There is also word that the election could be contested. STAY TUNED.

the incoming tribal council at picayune will have four members who are identical to the council that disenrolled 500 chukchansi people in 2006--dixie jackson (then-tribal chair), morris reid, dora jones,and harrold hammond, although these four are said to now be against further dismemberments...
i believe nokomis hernandez, who has a remaining year on council, has also gone on record as not supporting further disenrollment...
this leaves only nancy ayala (of the distributee group) and jennifer stanley (brother of past chair dustin graham who championed an unsuccesful attempt to disenroll another 200 chukchansi people in 2007 before being voted out of office and banished from tribal activities for three years for improprieties against the tribe) in support of these planned disenrollments scheduled for december 2011...
i say to ALL of this picayune tribal council--
!!!BRING THE PEOPLE--ALL THE PEOPLE (INCLUDING THE OVER 800 CHUKCHANSI DISENROLLED FROM PICAYUNE THUS FAR)
HOME TO PICAYUNE!!!
A good start
Prime example to anyone that does not believe this is money and politically fueled.
