Mohegan Tribal Gaming Authority is governed by a nine-member Management Board, whose members also comprise the Mohegan Tribal Council, the governing body of the Mohegan Tribe of Indians of Connecticut. Any change in the composition of the Tribal Council results in a corresponding change in Mohegan’s Management Board. The registered voters of the tribe elect all members of the Tribal Council.
Recently, the tribe announced the results of a general election wherein five of the nine seats on the Tribal Council were chosen pursuant to staggered term provisions in the tribe’s constitution. James Gessner Jr., Sarah E. Harris, Mark F. Brown, Charles Lawrence Harris Jr. and Terry Ann Hammel were elected as members of the Tribal Council. Each of these elected Tribal Council members will serve a four-year term, which commenced October 6, 2025.
