Mr. Hagan and Mr. Sarwark both said the paperwork needs to be signed by
yesterday. Unless everyone has all the paperwork signed yesterday, then
this appeal is still necessary or an appeal to the convention body.
If it is all signed yesterday then wonderful. We have heard nothing from
Region 8.
So to be clear, it has to be signed yesterday and turned in by today. If
you all think that clears up the problem, wonderful.
