[Lnc-business] EMAIL BALLOT 220505-1: Amend Policy Manual 2.01

[Caryn Ann Harlos]

I did not write it.  I agree with its contents however.

If the author wishes to disclose identity they may.  I will only speak for
myself.

Members are free to caucus and ask the   Secretary to start a ballot if
there are enough sponsors.  Whether or not it’s a good idea is up to
opinion but it is a member right and while not common, also not unheard of.

If I am given a properly sponsored ballot it is my job to start a ballot.
