Chairman talk

[jravnsbo]

MiamiU--lets use this space to talk about setting up the election.  Are we going to have the election 20-22 or are we letting it run through the 22d.  Just some clarification.

Then of course we will need to set up a thread to have people vote openly to have fairness in registered members.

If you have any thoughts of things we need to do, lets opent he dialogue.

[jravnsbo]

Oh and we should label the election vote thread with the election dates.

[jravnsbo]

Sounds good.  I'll make the thread on Friday to open it and you can declare the polls closed.

Any disputes ( which I don't forsee) we will decide together.

Starting Noon EST on 2/20 and ending Noon EST on 2/22.

[jravnsbo]

I would be for the position that it is just like a regular ballot.  It is near impossible to have a split ( but look at 2000).  

So you will have to vote for one ticket.  Agreed MiamiU?

[jravnsbo]

It is possible, but I think MiamiU and I would have to confere and come up with some.  But I would envision, giving the candidates an opportunity to state why to vote for them and a revote.  Or we could go to a game of chance.  Unsure, we will cross that bridge if it occurs.

What happens if the vote is a tie?

[jravnsbo]

You will vote int he open.  No polls people can cheat and unregistered could vote.

You have to vote openly.  I will make a thread tomorrow at noon EST to open the polls and MiamiU will close the polls on Sunday at noon.  Spread the word!

I am off to serve the country this weekend so I may need a GOP sub for the close.  Any GOP?

What happens if the vote is a tie?

Then the election should be thrown to the House!

Or Senate in this case....because there is an unofficial Senate here at the forums which I am a member of.

How is the election being held anyway? Is it where everyone makes their vote public....or are we doing a POLL. Please tell me we're not doing a poll.....

But if we're casting our vote out in the open....then this is what I suggest.......we should simply put a POLL in place....where EVERYONE.....registered or not.....can vote. That would be our "House Vote".

But lets hope the election doesn't end in a tie.
