<p dir="auto">Good work David! Thanks for working on Iowa. Missouri is covered as we consistently exceed the minimum vote counts to remain a recognized party here. Minnesota shouldn't be a problem. Traditionally, Minnesotans are willing to sign even when they disagree with us. The total signatures needed used to get collected over a few weeks with volunteers at a few well attended festivals.</p>
<p dir="auto">Interstate communications and state to LNC do seem to be lacking. The only time we Missourians seem to look outside the state is when we are looking to put together multi-state conventions every few years. I'd like to see that change but my peers here in Missouri are pretty busy with the 40+ campaigns we have this year.</p>

<p dir="auto">Thanks, Sean. I have voted Aye this motion and will vote Aye on Starchild’s amendment to the motion on but I appreciate your vote too!</p>
<p dir="auto">Any issues with ballot access in Missouri? My wife and I just collected about 50 signatures for Iowa this afternoon and will go out again tomorrow if necessary before the Iowa deadline Friday. Still have not heard back from Minnesota. I have never gotten a response from Wisconsin but I think I heard they are okay. Since I found out about these Region 6 ballot access issues only by accident, I jacked up the ballot access committee to keep the regional reps and alternates informed on ballot access issues in their regions. In general, it appears to me that we need more robust communication channels at all levels of the LNC.</p>
