[Lnc-business] Can we put out a poll to the delegates who voted for an in person convention

[Richard Longstreth]

I'm not good with wording polls but if someone is, I'd like to get this
started sooner rather than later. I find wisdom in hearing from the
delegates on this. My state chairs are, almost entirely, saying to not
approve a third venue. Absent a poll of delegates, I intend to represent
their opinion and trust that they are representing their delegates to me. I
cannot poll everyone in the region myself at this point, let alone have
contact info for all of the delegates for speedy communication.
