Pechanga Announces Tribal Council Election Results

Chairman Mark Macarro and five council members re-elected

Pechanga Indian Reservation, CA, Jul. 22, 2014 – The Pechanga Band of Chamtéela Indians today announced the results of elections for the seven-member Tribal Council held this past Saturday.

Chairman Mark Macarro, 50, was re-elected to his tenth consecutive two-year term as Chairman. Also re-elected to the Tribal Council were Andrew Masiel, Sr.; Robert “RJ” Munoa; Russell “Butch” Murphy; Catalina R. Chacon; and Corrina Garbani-Sanchez. Former Councilman Marc Luker was also elected to the Tribal Council. The new Tribal Council term will begin August 17, 2014.

The seven-member Tribal Council sets policies, administers government programs and executes the will of the Pechanga General Membership. The tribal chairperson and members of the council are charged with upholding and enforcing the Constitution and Bylaws of the Pechanga Band.

“It is a privilege and honor to have the faith of the Pechanga people in being elected to serve another term. The protection of and advocacy for Pechanga's sovereignty and homeland is a responsibility entrusted to every tribal council member by the Pechanga people," Chairman Macarro stated.
