[Lnc-business] E-MAIL BALLOT: Hinkle motion to purchasea building

[Scott L.]

"I was not aware that Scott is a second alternate for a regional
representative from one state (Nevada) and alternate from another state (New
York), while simultaneously serving as an alternate for a representative
from yet another state (yourself from California). 

 

Even if that odd arrangement is proper -- perhaps you or someone else can
cite language confirming this, for the record? -- it seems dubious to me
that it would be proper for Scott to vote on mail ballots in his second
alternate capacity. Second alternates are not listed on the LNC page on
LP.org ( http://www.lp.org/lnc-leadership ) and have not, to my knowledge,
been allowed to participate on the LNC email lists. If they can't
participate on these lists, then they would normally have no way of voting
in email ballots posted to these lists, and thus for Scott to vote as a
second alternate would be taking advantage of the list access he enjoys due
to his position as an alternate, an advantage not available to other second
alternates.

 

As reflected in Jim Lark's very helpfully detailed documentation below
(thank you, Jim!), I happen to agree with the vote that Scott cast on this
motion, but I do want to make sure that we are conducting our affairs in a
fair and equitable manner. If Scott is allowed to vote as a second alternate
in cases where neither Brett Pojunis nor Audrey Capozzi cast a vote, then it
seems to me that other LNC second alternates should also be allowed to
subscribe to and participate on the LNC lists, and vote in cases where they
may be similarly eligible to do so.
