The Fallon Paiute-Shoshone Tribe of Nevada will hold an election February 12 because the previous one was nullified.
Incumbent Chairman Alvin Moyle, former tribal police chief Bryan Hicks, former tribal employee Cathy Williams Tuni and Jack Allen are running for chairman. Moyle had won the earlier election.
The secretary seat and one council member seat are also up for grabs. A proposal to change the tribe's enrollment requirements is on the ballot too.
