Did I get even ...Thanks for a concise report James. Did I get even one vote? I thought there were 2 abstentions. Mike proved he is the best weapon the opposition has. Now if we only had 50 like him. And that is why I hold back from running -- you need troops to fight the evil Unity empire. When - as you say people get active - to give us the troops, I will throw myself into an election. You can win by not actually winning by capturing the hearts and minds of people in the schools. There is a need for every school to have someone on site to counter the Unity spin. As you pointed out at the debate, New Action in 2001 get 11,000 votes and then made the dirty deal, throwing what was a still a fairly ineffective opposition into total disarray - look at their vote totals since then. What a mistake they made. An opposition must once again break the 10 thousand mark to begin to make a difference. And winning chapter leader elections too.ed notes onlinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15018047869059226777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15921757.post-16997622992689509772015-05-19T07:30:37.232-04:002015-05-19T07:30:37.232-04:00You need to get the name recognition out there eve...You need to get the name recognition out there even if your slate doesn't win.<br /><br />It's not just time, this year you have to raise funds as well. <br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
