[Lnc-business] Email Ballot 2016-03: Gun Rights Resolution

[Sean O'Toole]

Good work David! Thanks for working on Iowa. Missouri is covered as we 
consistently exceed the minimum vote counts to remain a recognized party 
here. Minnesota shouldn't be a problem. Traditionally, Minnesotans are 
willing to sign even when they disagree with us. The total signatures 
needed used to get collected over a few weeks with volunteers at a few 
well attended festivals.

Interstate communications and state to LNC do seem to be lacking. The 
only time we Missourians seem to look outside the state is when we are 
looking to put together multi-state conventions every few years. I'd 
like to see that change but my peers here in Missouri are pretty busy 
with the 40+ campaigns we have this year.
