[Lnc-business] clarifying wording of LPKY motions

[Joshua Katz]

This lawsuit is concerning Kentucky's lack of a process for becoming a
qualified party prior to an election, and limiting the vote test to
President.  Ken originally proposed a motion to allocate $2,500.  I
suggested splitting it into two motions, one for $500 and one for $2000.
The KET case is separate, and Ken suggested $7000.  I did not modify the
wording on that, although now it seems I will need to rethink it in light
of the minutes on that case you sent you.  So, three motions, dealing with
two lawsuits, one of them against KET, the other on ballot access (which
has two motions).
