Dear Chairman Neale:<br>
<br>
I hope all is well with you. I am writing in my capacity as
Secretary Pro Tem to provide you and our LNC colleagues with the
results concerning Mark Hinkle's first motion concerning the
purchase of a building. <br>
<br>
Text of Motion:<o:p></o:p>
<p class="MsoNormal"
style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;
margin-left:30.0pt"><b>Moved, that the LNC approve the purchase of
an office in the greater Washington, D.C. area, to be named in
honor of David F. Nolan, contingent on the following conditions:</b><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"
style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;
margin-left:30.0pt;text-indent:-.25in"><span
style="font-size:10.0pt; font-family:Symbol">·</span><span
style="font-size:7.0pt"> </span><b>A minimum of 20% of
the down payment shall be raised from dedicated contributions.
If a portion of that is in the form of pledges, the pledges must
be converted to cash before a purchase contract and mortgage
agreement are finalized.</b><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"
style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;
margin-left:30.0pt;text-indent:-.25in"><span
style="font-size:10.0pt; font-family:Symbol">·</span><span
style="font-size:7.0pt"> </span><b>The monthly payment
of principal, interest, and OTM (Overhead, Taxes, and
Maintenance) shall not exceed 75% of our current lease payments
at the Watergate complex.</b><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"
style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;
margin-left:30.0pt"><b>This motion will constitute authority to
incur a mortgage if the above conditions are met and if this
motion passes by the necessary two-thirds vote as specified in
the Libertarian Party’s Bylaws.</b><o:p></o:p></p>
<b>The final decision on what property to buy shall be ratified by
the LNC's Executive Committee by a majority vote once the above
conditions are met.</b><br>
<br>
<br>
As of the close of the voting period at 9:40 p.m. EST last night
(Thursday, Jan. 24), the vote totals are as follows (voters are
listed by alphabetical order of surname):<br>
<br>
Ayes (6): Cloud, Hinkle, Kirkland, Myers, Redpath, Vohra<br>
Nays (8): Lark, Mack, Olsen, Pojunis, Starchild, Visek, Wiener,
Wrights<br>
<br>
Note: Mr. Goldstein (Region 3 alternate) voted "nay"; his vote is
superseded by the "nay" vote of Ms. Mack. Dr. Lieberman (Region 4
alternate) voted "nay." According to the rules of Region 4 (as
described by Dan Wiener), since both Mr. Wiener and Mr. Pojunis cast
votes, Dr. Lieberman's vote is superseded by the "nay" vote of Mr.
Wiener. Mr. Frankel (Region 7 alternate) voted "aye"; his vote is
superseded by the "aye" vote of Mr. Myers.<br>
<br>
I request that our LNC colleagues review the list of votes and
associated voters above and the list of voters and vote submission
dates below. I also request that a member who finds an error in
either list contact the LNC as soon as possible. <br>
<br>
As always, thanks for your work for liberty. Please do not
hesitate to contact me if I can be of assistance to you.<br>
<br>
Take care,<br>
Jim<br>
