<div><b><u>Votes are due to the LNC-Business list by July 19, 2014 at 11:59:59pm Pacific time.</u></b></div>
<div> </div>
<div><u>Sponsor:</u> Chair Nick Sarwark<br></div>
<div> </div>
<u>Motion:</u><br>Whereas, the Bylaws of the Libertarian Party state that “delegates to a Regular Convention shall be selected by a method adopted by each affiliate party” (Article 11, 3 (b)), and<br><br>Whereas, the Bylaws of the Libertarian Party state that “each state-level affiliate party shall, in accordance with its own Bylaws and these Bylaws, determine who shall be its delegates to all Regular Conventions.” (Article 6, 3), and<br>
<br>Whereas, the Bylaws of the Libertarian Party state that “the autonomy of the affiliate and sub-affiliate parties shall not be abridged by the National Committee or any other committee of the Party…” (Article 6, 5), and<br>
<br>Whereas the Chair of the National Convention incorrectly ruled that it was in order for the convention to vote to seat three delegates in the Oregon delegation over the objection of the affiliate party chair, and<br>
<br>
Whereas the motion made did not challenge the report of the Credentials Committee as to who was the affiliate party chair, and<br><br>Whereas the convention delegates subsequently voted to seat those delegates over the objection of the delegate chair,<br>
<br>Be it resolved that the Libertarian National Committee apologizes to the Libertarian Party of Oregon for the erroneous ruling of the National Convention Chair.<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br><br></font></span></div>
