The St. Regis Mohawk Tribe of New York will hold a run-off June 21 for one of the three chief positions, the Associated Press reports.

Barbara Lazore will face Lorraine White in the election. Each received 245 votes, a spokesperson said.

A new slate of leaders was elected last weekend. They are said to oppose a $100 million land and gaming settlement the tribe entered into with the state.
