I was on the Election Committee many years ago for a few years. It is VERY complicated
indeed.

Interesting.
And I thought I was all alone in this ;)
I bet lots of us have the similar feelings or thoughts too.

Every election, I feel like I was just handed a trig book when
I'm only in
2nd grade math.
The process always feels.... confusing. (Heck, for real life elections, I
have to call the County Election Board for basic info!)
I always WANT to participate. But I always feel I'm uniformed and "dumb".
Some of you longstanding project members probably know countless names of
people in the US / State projects. I don't. (Perhaps many CCs don't know
just like I feel?)
I just wrote to Denise about this. I could only name about 5 folks, by
first names / maybe initial of last name. Partly that is my problem-- my
former occupation trained me to quickly forget names except who was right
in front of me. But regardless of my issue, I still feel the Elections
could help everyone-- provide a link to names? Suggest where we can review
people who like doing Admin work overseeing areas of the project?
I'm just gonna put this out there--- If anyone wants to be nominated for a
position, would you email me? I'd like to participate (and learn) but I
need some help, folks, to do even a nomination. :-< Give me a clue? Make
a suggestion? Tout your interest and that you want to be in xx position?
(Or, if you know somebody who would like to be nominated but is shy?)
Oh-- and they want *your* email and State for the nominations form...
which I don't know... so..
Maybe other members feel lost, too, and that's why voting is so low? Could
someone(s) guide me?
P.S. I am not on the google group list, so please respond to the Discuss /
RW list or contact me offlist
