On Wednesday April 19, 2006 the Salt Lake County Democratic Hispanic Caucus elected new leadership. Phil Bernal (pictured left) won the Chair's seat by two votes in a close race with James Yapias.

The caucus also voted overwhelmingly to allow all caucus members the ability to vote in caucus meetings, as opposed to only allowing county and state delegates the honor. The argument being that this measure would help the caucus grow.

Avaveni Olivares was elected as Vice Chair #1, along with Jennifer Mayer-Glenn who won the Vice Chair #2 Spot. Angela Romero, the only officer to run from the previous administration will once again serve as Secretary. Gabriella Archuleta was elected to serve as caucus Treasurer, and Argueta Daniel will serve as the Sergeant at Arms. The term for each officer is one year, explained out going chair, Archie Archuleta.
