The Federation may be the only AFSCME council with an all-female slate of top officers.
Sue Henricksen, a DD case resource manager in Tacoma and president of Local 53, got convention delegates' nod as vice president.
She joins re-elected incumbents President Carol Dotlich (Local 793, Western State Hospital, Lakewood), Secretary Lee Novak (Local 1400, Community Corrections, Longview/Kelso) and Treasurer Rosemary Sterling (Local 1381, Whatcom Community College, Bellingham).
Henricksen prevailed in a two-way race with incumbent Vice President Bill Copland of Local 1253.
Dotlich won re-election as president in her race against John Frazier, UW Local 1488.
Novak won a run-off in the secretary race against Steve McGillis, Local 313. The other nominee, Shellie Savage (Local 443), finished third in the first round of balloting.
Sterling was the sole nominee for WFSE/AFSCME treasurer. She was declared re-elected by acclamation.
The four officers will serve until the next WFSE/AFSCME convention in 2011.
