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

[Caryn Ann Harlos]

The state chairs in general I have spoken to object to the entire process
even if it worked properly.

They are self-organizing to present the LNC a resolution that I will
support pretty much no matter what it says.

Since we do not have a viable alternative that will give a solution and
this would bring us back to zero I withdraw my vote and change to abstain .

I do not support the procedure we are using.  I do however support the
compromise.

I can’t go back to zero without having a plan b.  But I also cannot grant
my approval to the process we are now doing which the state chairs also
oppose.

An abstain at this point represents my feelings.

I do not believe the LNC is capable (nor at this point terribly concerned
about) member rights.  I don’t think what the state chairs will propose is
perfect either.

But I do know that the state chairs know what’s best for their delegations
more than we do.

A yes vote without an alternative destroys the compromise and I gave my
word.

A no vote supports the status quo and that is equally abhorrent as breaking
my word.

My abstain is my vote FOR the state chairs and telling us to back off and
let them lead.
