I vote NO. A motion that hides the author and the author's intent, isn't one I'll vote for. --- Elizabeth Van Horn LNC Region 3 Representative (IN, MI, OH, KY) On 2020-05-05 11:07, Caryn Ann Harlos wrote:
I did not write it. I agree with its contents however.
If the author wishes to disclose identity they may. I will only speak for myself.
Members are free to caucus and ask the Secretary to start a ballot if there are enough sponsors. Whether or not it's a good idea is up to opinion but it is a member right and while not common, also not unheard of.
If I am given a properly sponsored ballot it is my job to start a ballot.

Why was this not talked about on the LNC email list? Before suddenly being brought to a vote?
What I want to know is who wrote it and why. Does it have anything do with rumors being circulated out on social media? I'd like some transparency.
If not, can someone explain?
