[Lnc-business] AMEND POLICY MANUAL - Request for co-sponsors

[Caryn Ann Harlos]

ahhh meant to keep the word vote in there - here is the correct
language - though I did post the language and ask for suggestions
prior to starting this email ballot - and it included not deleting
vote - the first email is a scrivener's error.  That is how Richard
indicated he would co-sponsor because I did post the wording and ask
for suggestions--

I do hope we are changing our underwear though.

Section 1.04 ELECTRONIC MAIL BALLOT PROCEDURES
