about what was cheaper for YOU ALL – but what is likely to be the least
expensive option for the PARTY AND OUR DONORS. At time a/v and wifi alone can
run $1500 plus an additional $500 a day (or more) for cost of the meeting room.
That’s likely to be $2500 in savings for the PARTY and our donors if you all
decide on OKC. In terms of room savings – cost of travel – that is of course a
factor too because our donors pay for staff to go to these meetings. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

meaning for the body to make a decision WITHOUT factoring cost. We are
the very top leadership of the Libertarian Party. It is an absurdity to
think we would skirt what is ultimately best for the party to save ourselves
some money. While I am intent upon selecting a location so that at least
we can save as much money as possible with advanced planning, that is a stark
difference from selecting a location specifically because it would save us
money.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

If somebody would like to send me those I will in fact do so. Either way,
I would hope that our body selects the location based upon their analysis of
what is most important for the PARTY, not for their own wallet. Factor
the 2018 convention. Factor the likeliness of selecting a location more
suited for the delegation. Factor the OKC ballot drive if you like.
But please don't factor it because it's cheapest for you.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

Hey Guys.<br>
<br>
While I'm certain this should have been done 6 weeks ago, it just wasn't<br>
and so I'm trying to at least say that everyone on the board had their say.<br>
<br>
Out of the following: <st1:City w:st="on">Atlantic City</st1:City>, <st1:City
w:st="on">Bellevue</st1:City>, <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:City w:st="on">New
Orleans</st1:City>, <st1:State w:st="on">Oklahoma</st1:State></st1:place>
City,<br>
and <st1:City w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Phoenix</st1:place></st1:City><br>
<br>
Can you let me know your single preference. We have 20 other votes<br>
tabulated and I'd love to put this to rest on the boards end so that staff<br>
has a clear direction.<br>
<br>
You're welcome to text me at <a href="tel:512-773-3968" target="_blank"
value="+15127733968">512-773-3968</a><br>
<br>
Thanks much.<br>
Kevin Ludlow<br>
<br>
PS: Apologies to Mr. Redpath as I do believe you had expressed OKC earlier<br>
in the thread. I just didn't want to assume it in case I misread
something.<br>

I just did a quick check on Southwest Airlines.<br>

Fares for Feb 19 and 21 from <st1:City w:st="on">Minneapolis</st1:City> to <st1:City
w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Oklahoma City</st1:place></st1:City> are as
little<br>
as $280 ROUND TRIP for a 1pm arrival on Friday,<br>

I see that <st1:City w:st="on">Grand Forks</st1:City> to <st1:City w:st="on"><st1:place

I have not looked at the prices for the other cities, but February prices<br>
for <st1:City w:st="on">Grand Forks</st1:City> to <st1:City w:st="on"><st1:place
w:st="on">Oklahoma City</st1:place></st1:City> runs about $1,200.
Connections are not<br>
too bad. At that price I would probably do the 10 hour drive.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
I still think we just need to find a nice central location that is<br>
interesting to go to, has the services we want, has cheap air
fares, and<br>
just stick with that for all future conventions, and then keep the LNC<br>
meetings in DC to keep the staff time and costs down.<br>
