However, the Potter Yachters does in fact meet all qualifications. 
Selection of voting representative to the NCC is the concern of the
Potter Yachters, not the NCC.  Who that representative works for, or
what their views are, or what other roles they may fill, is completely
irrelevant.  As has been pointed out, the right to vote is not denied to
people who work for the government; presidential candidates are allowed
to vote for themselves etc etc.  The petty gerrymandering by the adcom
and others is absolutely disgusting -- no wonder that the NCC has
essentially zero credibility.
