It is my understanding that the Chicago Manual dictates commas on the
inside - not my personal preference. I have a subscription, I'll forward
the appropriate citation once I kill this migraine.

It has been a very busy week, so I find myself doing something
that I
dislike when others do it. :-) I'm sending an updated document
draft
while many of us are in transit to the meeting.
Attached is the version 2 draft of the convention minutes which
can be
approved this weekend following the completion of the at-large
audit.
You don't have much time to review it, so I'm itemizing what is
different from the first version I sent about a month ago.
I only received feedback from two people (Hagan and Harlos), and
based
on that feedback, draft 2 has been updated as follows:
* p. 53 now reflects that the ambiguous vote for T-Rex may have
been
intended to be a vote for Mr. Hagan.
* an Oxford comma was added on p. 3
* Ms. Harlos had expressed her preference that commas at the
end of
quoted phrases should go inside of quotation marks. This is
one of
those grammar rules that is evolving over time, and many
consider
it acceptable to place it either inside or outside. In many
of the
instances she flagged, the quoted material is something like
the
title of a platform plank rather than something a verbatim
record
of what someone said. In such cases, it just looks bizarre
to me
for the comma to be inside the quotes, as it is not part of
the
title of the platform plank. In such cases my preference is
to
place the comma outside of the quotes for readability and so
that
the quotes don't contain things that aren't actually a part
of the
source material being quoted. The inside-the-quotes approach
makes
more sense for something like: "It's hot in Phoenix, but
it's a
dry heat," said Jane.
* Since there were delegate motions immediately made at the
start of
the Platform Committee report, the subject matter
introduction in
the minutes wasn't documented in the same way as with the
Bylaws
and Rules Committee report. I've now added an identification
of
Ms. Harlos' role as the chair of the Platform Committee to
the
text.
* On p. 18, "Mr." has been inserted before "Sarwark" in one
location.
* I added a requested accent mark on a delegate's name.
* The missing period on p. 31 has been added.
* On p. 32, delegate state identifiers have been added.
There was a wee bit of time pressure to get my audited at-large
results
out. After I sent them, I realized that one other correction
didn't
make my list of things that I caught after-the-fact. We were
voting to
do a second audit, and I thought that might occur sooner rather
than
later, so my note-to-self reminder was with the ballots
themselves so
I'd see it for the second audit...which meant that I didn't see
it for
the first draft minutes. Grrr! But I saw it when getting the
materials together for today.
This draft version 2 additionally notes that the 150 votes cast
by
Florida were actually all contained on 23 ballots, rather than
the 24
on the tally sheet and on my prior numbers. This has very
minimal
impact. With one fewer ballot in the denominator, it very
slightly
increases the percentages for each candidate.
