Perhaps you should be a Jr High English teacher, this fixation on semantics would serve you well.
KE, I'm not picking on you about this, honest. It's just that when you're talking about something like bylaws, or a contract, or whatever, the devil is in the details.
My concern with the detailed wording is probably less related to high school than it is my years negotiating/interpreting/dealing with union contracts. Or maybe from buying and selling houses and the contracts involved. Don't know. But the wording is important. It's the details that count.
That's all.
And yes....Horrace made it perfectly clear exactly what happened. And I think we all agree that it's wrong. IMO either everyone on the ballot or no one on the ballot should be in the nominating committee meetings, and especailly should not be voting on the make up of the ballot for a spot for which they are a candidate.
No if's and's or but's about it.
