I did not get a ballot in the mail. I called the AMA and ask where is my Ballot? They told me to write down on a piece of paper who I wanted to vote for and send it to Muncie,IN and my Vote would be counted...........sure they will.
I wonder if the EC voting is just a big farce? The accounting firm in Richmond,Indiana will take votes written on scrap paper?
I wonder how many votes the AMA HQ sends on scrap paper? To think about it last year we voted for the EC president and no one I know voted for the elected president. Oh the AMA HQ told me "no one ever votes anyway"

Not surprised here at what you will get from AMA headquarters.
The official word is far too frequently ignored as there never seems to be adequate repercussion.

Like government and local police forces -- just who in _ell can or will do anything about it? The majority of the voting AMA membership appears to prefer tip-toeing back-slapping comedians over those dedicated souls that wish to foster the sport of model aviation.
