Kevin, I like the concept of having a repository for information.
One of the challenges to putting something like that together is the
vast differences of opinion on what ought to be done.<br>
<br>
Imagine the section for planning LNC meeting:<br>
Opinion A: hold it someplace inexpensive for board members like OKC<br>
Opinion B: hold it someplace more expensive that will impressive
people (NYC)<br>
Opinion C: hold it online instead of in person<br>
<br>
I think you can imagine other disagreements on other topics:<br>
<br>
Ballot access:<br>
Opinion A<br>
Opinion B<br>
<br>
Conventions:<br>
Opinion A (hold it on a cruise ship).<br>
etc.<br>
<br>
Running for office:<br>
Opinion A<br>
etc.<br>
<br>
In any case, there is a ballot access committee tasked with putting
together best practices for ballot access. And some places with
repositories of info that that is hard to keep up to date. Great
ideas and goals to have overall.<br>

It's really nice to see visual data like that; thanks
so much for putting that together!<br>
<br>
</div>
I had a question for the LNC in general: do we have a
knowledge-base or some kind of repository for keeping up
with this kind of material? It would be really nice to
know that there is a single place, accessible by all,
where all of this information goes.<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>When I ran in Texas last year it was immediately
obvious that LPTexas had never made any effort to try to
put such a knowledge base together. My campaign team
and I did our best to collect everything we did and
place it into a navigable Wiki so that other candidates
could use it. It's far from exhaustive, but it was a
start and many other candidates were able to use it.
Incidentally Kurt Hildebrand has been really good at
creating those systems within LPTexas using our
org-system.<br>
<br>
Anyway, if we don't have anything like it then I would
be happy to setup something like this for the LNC so
that we're not relying solely upon email chains for
historical information in the future.<br>

pleased
to announce a check received
for $20,000 to help finance
a major quiz door hanger
distribution project in
2016. <br>
<br>
The check was hand delivered
recently by Michael
Chastain, of Austin, Texas.
Mr. Chastain also recently
contributed $4,000 for
Oklahoma ballot access.<br>
<br>
I plan to do something
similar to what we did in
2010:<br>
<a href="http://www.lp.org/blogs/staff/lp-monday-message-help-reach-a-million" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://www.lp.org/blogs/staff/lp-monday-message-help-reach-a-million</a><br>
<a href="http://www.lp.org/blogs/staff/quiz-across-america-door-hangers-5-per-100" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://www.lp.org/blogs/staff/quiz-across-america-door-hangers-5-per-100</a><br>
<br>
but this time, I want to do
over a million door hangers.
I can see having the quiz on
one side, and our
presidential nominee on the
other.<br>
<br>
In 2010, we also received a
$20,000 check from a
different donor to help
support door hangers. With
the extra financing, we're
able to sell them at five
cents each and waive
shipping charges, rather
than selling at 10 cents
each plus $5 shipping as we
do now.<br>
<br>
For those of you new to the
LNC, I've written
separately, and will write
more in the future, about
how the door hangers do much
more than simply provide the
printed advertising
benefits. They encourage
local activity, etc. I'll
write more about it later. <br>
<br>
To me, this was an early
Christmas present to the LP,
but I certainly understand
others might see it
differently:<br>
