Hi,

While it might be nice if we did have elections for the Board where all the 
members of the constituencies and stakeholders got to vote, at this point it is 
only the council members in the Non Contracted Parties House who vote.  Though 
who knows for future elections we could propose it - though it might take a 
by-laws change.

In the CSG, as I understand it, the chairs of the constituencies have directed 
how their council members must vote.  Of course they have the choice of obeying 
or not since it is a secret ballot.

In the NCSG, the council members are all free to decide for themselves how they 
will vote.

My hope is that they will decide to vote for me.  And maybe the support they see 
here will help them decide to do so.  


And of course it truly warms my heart to see your support.  I appreciate it 
greatly.

Thanks

a.
