                                <div>  </div>
                                <div> Dear Libertarian,</div>
                                <div> After Ruth Bennett was elected to
                                  the Continental Elementary School
                                  District Board in Green Valley, Ariz.,
                                  last fall, she found that she is no
                                  longer able to dedicate the time
                                  needed to fulfill her duties as
                                  secretary for the Libertarian National
                                  Committee. As such, she has resigned
                                  from her post. I wish to thank Ms.
                                  Bennett for all she has done for
                                  liberty.</div>
                                <div> I have appointed Dr. James Lark to
                                  serve as secretary pro tem. He will
                                  perform all required functions of the
                                  secretary until the LNC has selected a
                                  new secretary. My thanks to Dr. Lark
                                  for stepping up to the plate during
                                  this transitional period.</div>
                                <div> Dr. Lark has informed the LNC that
                                  he does not intend to seek the
                                  position on a permanent basis. He
                                  still remains a regional
                                  representative, and will only cast one
                                  vote on any LNC proceedings.</div>
                                <div> I intend for the LNC to select a
                                  new secretary as soon as possible. The
                                  process will be as follows:</div>
                                <div> We will be accepting
                                  self-nominations for secretary
                                  immediately, and nominations will
                                  close at midnight on Jan. 24, 2013
                                  (Eastern).</div>
                                <div> Shortly thereafter, the secretary
                                  pro tem will submit a mail ballot to
                                  the LNC to vote for a new secretary.
                                  The mail ballot rules provide for a
                                  voting period of 10 days. If no
                                  nominee receives the required majority
                                  vote, we will proceed with the same
                                  basic procedure we use in convention —
                                  drop the lowest and vote again.</div>
                                <div> If you are interested in being
                                  considered for this position, please
                                  submit your nomination to <a
                                    moz-do-not-send="true"
                                    href="mailto:Secretary@lp.org">Secretary@lp.org</a>.
                                  Please note that all LNC members are
                                  expected to attend committee meetings
                                  3–4 times a year held at locations
                                  around the country at their own
                                  expense.</div>
                                <div> My intent is that we have a new
                                  properly appointed secretary in place
                                  before our March 16 & 17 LNC
                                  meeting in Chicago.</div>
                                <div> As of today (Jan. 14, 2013), I
                                  have received self-nominations from
                                  David Blau of Massachusetts, Chuck
                                  Moulton of Virginia, and Gary Johnson
                                  of Texas (no relation to our 2012
                                  presidential nominee).</div>
                                <div> Yours in liberty,</div>
