[Lnc-business] Results: E-MAIL BALLOT: Revised Hinkle motion to purchase a building

[James Lark]

Dear Chairman Neale:

     I hope all is well with you.  I am writing in my capacity as 
Secretary Pro Tem to provide you and our LNC colleagues with the results 
of Mark Hinkle's revised motion concerning the purchase of a building.

    Text of Motion:
*
Moved, that the LNC approve the purchase of an office in the greater 
Washington, D.C. area, to be named in honor of David F. Nolan, 
contingent on the following conditions:*

  * *A minimum down payment of 20% shall be raised from dedicated
    contributions.  If a portion of that is in the form of pledges, the
    pledges must be converted to cash before a purchase contract and
    mortgage agreement are finalized.*
  * *The monthly payment of principal, interest, and OTM (Overhead,
    Taxes, and Maintenance) shall not exceed 75% of our current lease
    payments at the Watergate complex.*

*This motion will constitute authority to incur a mortgage if the above 
conditions are met and if this motion passes by the necessary two-thirds 
vote as specified in the Libertarian Party's Bylaws.*

*The final decision on what property to buy shall be approved by the 
LNC's Executive Committee by a majority vote once the above conditions 
are met.

*

     As I noted in an update to the LNC yesterday, after the close of 
the voting period at 5:05 p.m. EST yesterday (Wednesday, Jan. 30), the 
vote totals are as follows (voters are listed by alphabetical order of 
surname):

Ayes (13):   Blau, Capozzi, Cloud, Hagan, Hinkle, Kirkland, Lark, Mack, 
Myers, Neale, Redpath, Vohra, Wrights
Nays (3):  Olsen, Visek, Wiener

Note:  Mr. Goldstein (Region 3 alternate) voted "nay"; his vote is 
superseded by the "aye" vote of Ms. Mack.  Ms. Capozzi (Region 4 
alternate) voted "aye"; since Mr. Pojunis did not vote, her "aye" will 
serve as one of the votes of Region 4.  Dr. Lieberman (Region 4 
alternate) voted "nay"; his vote is superseded by the "nay" vote of Mr. 
Wiener.   Mr. Blau (Region 5N alternate) voted "aye"; since Mr. Tomasso 
did not vote, Mr. Blau's "aye" will serve as the vote of Region 5N.

     In that update message, I requested that LNC members review the 
list of votes and associated voters above and the list of voters and 
vote submission dates below to determine whether any corrections are 
needed.  In response Starchild indicated yesterday that he thought he 
had voted "nay" on the motion; in a subsequent message he indicated that 
it is possible he did not vote on this motion, but rather on a different 
motion,  I requested that if he has indeed voted on the motion, he 
should forward to me the messages in which he voted; so far I have not 
received any messages.  In addition, I have reviewed my e-mail files 
again; as far as I can tell, I do not have a message from him containing 
a vote on this issue.

     As always, thanks for your work for liberty.  Please do not 
hesitate to contact me if I can be of assistance to you.

     Take care,
     Jim
