[Lnc-business] EMAIL BALLOT 200513-1 MOTION TO RESCIND MAY 9 MOTION DESCRIBED BELOW

[Caryn Ann Harlos]

I believe in a compromise.  I have floated an alternate compromise. But I
concur with Mr. Smith.  I am voting yes.  If it is defeated, I will do my
damnest to make the online thinking work, but I can do nothing about the
flaws.  And it has been made clear to me that the chair is doing nothing to
set me up for success in my role in that activity.  I will make the best
our of a bad situation for this party and its members no matter what.  I am
not entirely at peace with a yes vote on this without the other motion
being passed but I am less at peace with pretending this online fiasco is a
deliberative assembly.

In any event, I will accept our decision and will not undermine or perform
subterfuge.  This motion is the right way to challenge decisions.  Not
social media scheming.  We need to preserve ballot access for GA and NH but
why hasn't the chair authorized litigation there?  WHY??????    I urge us
also to take the ball into our own hands and authorize that litigation.
And to authorize the signing of the contract by any officer.  We have
allowed these games to be played for too long.

found anything offensive or overly off-putting (or some other social faux
pas), please contact me privately and let me know. *
