In Liberty, Caryn Ann Harlos
LNC Secretary and LP Historical Preservation Committee Chair ~ 561.523.2250
I am completely in favor of anti-war coalitions. I went to the last one.
I however cannot vote on this one without answers to questions that should have been addressed before answering for sponsors.
My internal instinct is YES but I cannot follow that until those questions are answered and I think duty requires us to ask.
Ballot ends on 9/13, not 9/8
PS: Your sponsorship did not appear in my inbox but is on google list. Outlook bites.
I find it interesting that those questions don’t seem to be fiduciarily important.
Also this doesn’t seem to be a non-profit but I am not good with stuff like that. Is RAWM still a non-profit?
All for anti-war. Not crazy about being asked to vote on something that already has our logo without a vote and financial questions not answered.
Events costs money. I get it. Where is it going?
I am glad to re-ask the emails, numbered, and simply with this intro. OF COURSE it costs money to put on an event. That was never remotely the questins.
I would appreciate clear direct answers if possible.
Please site such rules. This is why RONR discourages email ballots. There are no such rules.
As said earlier the ending date is the 13th. I am changing my vote to no. I support the idea of the cause. I will be there. But my questions, which actually the chair has a fidicuiary obligation to answer remain mostly unanswered or kinda unanswered. She is a very involved party and now I found out about a very Trumpian event to take place the next day she founded and did not put on her conflicts of interest and no corporate disclosure can be found. Also this image shows that WAY before the LNC vote WE ARE THE ORGANIZER. There is significant liability there. How much staff time do we pay.
The fact that so few ask so few questions, and when I do I am mocked is a huge breach of duty. This smacks of self-dealing as does the even the next day. I look forward to the “witty” insults.
See here:
For those yet to vote. I will be without cell signal until tomorrow.
Mr. Hertzch, unfortunately your vote is past deadline.
