Campaign items have never been a tradition here on Grex, but I think
they're a great idea. I should also point out, though, that I think
I'm the one who first used one for M-Net, so of course I think they're
a good idea.

I think there's a command you can use to view candidates campaign
speeches or something. I remember using something like that last year.

It's part of the vote program.

Where does it get the speeches from John? Some kind of direct link to
the picospan item?

Each board candidate can prepare a short "statement" that the vote
program will display on request. I'll be sending the candidates
email on how to prepare such a statement and make it visible to the
vote program. (I should do that soon, come to think of it.)

No. Four votes per voter, and of that, maximum one vote per
candidate.

Or, put better, one vote per open position per voter, and no
candidate may be considered to be running for more than one open
position simultaneously.

I've just sent email to all the candidates, and to all nominees who
haven't declined, reminding them of deadlines and describing how to
create a "campaign statement" that the vote program will display.

Here's the list of nominees at this point. People who've accepted
are marked with a *. Others have until the end of the day (EST)
on November 30 to accept, which should done via a response in this
item. Before creating the final ballot and opening up the vote
program, I'll check with the treasurer that all the candidates
satisfy the membership requirements.

There do seem to be a bunch of good candidates already. And I do expect
to be fairly busy during the coming year.
On the other hand, I'm not currently serving on any committees or
deliberative bodies. Grex is very important to me. And I do have some
background and skills which may be useful to the board.
So, I'll accept the nomination.

Oops, I inadvertently omitted krj from my list in #136. He was
nominated but hasn't yet accepted or declined (unless I missed it).
So please consider him to be a potential candidate at this point.

Hey, can we sling mud? I need to know in time to get a good pail and
shovel.

The mud-slinging has already begun in a couple of other items.

I noticed. I just wanted official permission first.
Should we all create our own items, or just rely on our statements? I
noticed this seemed to generate a lot of dialogue among users, which I
like to see. Perhaps, once I finish with my statement, I will enter an
item. My platform, of course, is not currently as extensive as Jamie's.

I like the idea of having individual items. And I'm enjoying the
dialog. I'm looking forward to seeing more items here to discuss.
I think this is especially beneficial for the non-AA-ites who have
likely never met any of the candidates. This will let them know the
candidates a little better

Your web site is a carbon copy of David Irving's, and he was beaten. Try
that on for size, bucko.
