[RC] AERC At Large Election... We Win!!! - Paul Sidio
Tonight I was looking at my ballot for the
candidates for AERC At Large Board Members and noticed a sharp contrast with my
sample ballot for tomorrows elections here in Missouri.
On the State and Federal ballot, I had to choose
between people I didn't like versus people I really disliked. Or between people I thought were incompetant versus people I
thought were almost criminally incompetant. I want a "None of the Above " box on
my ballot.
To take a break I started looking at my AERC
ballot.... Dang!.... We have really good choices. All excellent people who
will bring credit to our organization... How come I can only pick 8 of these
great candidates? For a brief moment, I thought about trying to get the
AERC people to serve as our public officials, and those here on the ballot in
Missouri to run AERC. But then I snapped back to reality.
AERC is too important to leave to professional politicians. They would screw up
something that is very important to me. Missouri and the US congress will just
have to do without them.
My thanks to those who have offered to serve. I am
confident that we all will win, no matter who gets elected for the AERC offices.
They will spend long hours to help make my sport better. Sounds like a win to
me.
