They don't hurt. They are just not required. Grex doesn't
follow RRofO to the letter and don't expect it to.

resp:10 Your constant efforts to force your way of doing things on others

I'm not forcing anything. Do you feel forced? You don't seem to be
reacting like you have been forced to do anything. I just have an
opinion. Lots of people here have opinions. Your's is one of them. You
are welcome to your opinion. Why not likewise welcome me to mine?

Are there any other nominations? This nominating period will
end March 31.
Also a reminder to all candidates that they need to be members of
Grex in order to run (you have up to the start of the election to
make sure of this).

Looks like walkman is running unopposed. Is there a need to hold an election,
then?

The bylaws say we have to run the election, but it would be a formality.
I don't see anything in the bylaws about "if candidates are running
unopposed, the election does not need to be held" or anything similar.
