BOD election Amendment

[Cutaway68 4]

In light of the proposal by the BOD's, I am interested to know what others think.

If you selected the more info option, please post what info you would like to have. Personally, I would like to know how much this is going to cost. I also wonder if more members would actually vote, and if they did, are they making informed choices or just randomly filling it out?

I have voted in the last two elections and I felt as if I was making half-informed decisions. I read their bio's to learn more about each candidate, but that didn't really tell me much about them or their philosophies.

As for proxy voting I am a little skeptical giving someone else the power to vote for me and don't trust that my preference will be upheld. This does not mean that I distrust anyone in particular, or that someone would intentionally change my vote, it just seems to remove me further from the situation as a whole.

And not to hijack this thread, but maybe it's time to start up a new forum for BOD elections/issues for 2010...

My vote is in favor of the proxy to allow on-line elections. I don't have time or energy to track every issue and cause, so I elect people I trust to do that for me. I have no trouble offering this proxy to the secretary to vote as she chooses on this issue. Yes, I know the specifics aren't listed, but if I really cared about that I'd attend the meeting myself. Let's make the change to the by-laws and then give the Board the power to implement as they see fit. And then let's shut-up and jump.
