Bosely says she’s ‘deeply honoured and privileged to have had the support of the citizens’
The Teslin Tlingit Council in the Yukon has elected a female chief for the first time ever — though it’s not the first time Elizabeth Bosely has won the vote there.
An election was originally held in the community last September and Bosely won the most votes. That election, however, was later deemed invalid after an appeal and subsequent investigation found problems with some mail-in ballots.
