- Thread-topic: [registrars] Update on Tasting Ballot
And this is why I voted against the amendment . . .
Let's just proceed. I already received the ballot. The substance and
process are far from perfect, but at least the GNSO will get a sense of
where we are coming from.
Hopefully, we will do better now that we have a professional staff
person on board.
Thanks.
Jon

Dear Jon: I hate to think of it, but should we abort the present ballot
before it is issued (in about one hour)? I could start it a day later.
Or is your present posting sufficient for the needs?
I am only anxious that all our members understand the issues. The
ballot on the Main Motion is very important. The dashes you inserted
into the text in the Wiki were a very good addition to the original
text.
I also urge all voting members to vote. I ordinarily don't recommend
abstaining on a vote. I will not abstain on a ballot unless it is a
situation in which I am not sufficiently informed to be able to render a
valid judgement. (Parenthetically, I don't like the rule which adds the
"abstain" votes to the "no" votes. *My* abstentions can be read as "I
just don't know").
However, the way this ballot is drawn, I can conceive of members putting
serious thought behind a vote for both or for neither of the primary
options.
So, get out there and vote.
Respectfully submitted,
Bob Connelly
Secretary for the RC
