SaveKPFA's election fraud

Documents of the Cheating in KPFA's Board Elections


The Pacifica radio network, which includes KPFA 94.1 FM, is run by a listener democracy which was instituted after the thwarted "hijacking" of the 1990s. Local Station Boards (LSBs) are elected by listener-members. However, there has been cheating in every election at KPFA by a group now calling itself "SaveKPFA."

The articles below are reports and letters from the KPFA elections of 2007 and 2010.
