Mulgrew wins UFT re-election with lowest victory margin since taking office

United Federation of Teachers President Michael Mulgrew easily secured a fifth term, despite renewed efforts to oust the union’s longtime leadership, UFT officials announced Wednesday.

Mulgrew was elected with 66% of the vote, 20 percentage points less than his vote share in 2019 and his lowest margin of victory since he won his first full term in 2010 with 91% of the vote.

Camille Eterno, his main competitor, earned about 34% of the vote. 

“I am honored that — after a couple of very difficult years for the schools and for our members — I have been re-elected,” Mulgrew said in a statement. “I look forward to working with the entire UFT to ensure that the school system functions well for everyone – employees, children and their families.”
