I get where you are coming from Cence. What I mean is that last year I truly ran and I lost. I still feel upset because 20 people voted of many more eligible. I spoke to so many who were upset pre-election and then when I talked to them after it turned out they didn’t bother voting. If our group is so apathetic they can’t bother taking 1 minute to vote we get what Board we may. I accept that will probably happen again and the subpar incumbents we have are going to win.
We are a group who loves to bitch about nothing. You say my enemies are watching as I’m shelling my own camp as if its House of Cards. I don’t believe those “enemies” would have ever voted for anyone but an incument anyway. I said in my first post I didn’t want to or expect to win. How much clearer could I be? I only joined the race out of boredom. Don’t fucking vote for me.
This aspect of the conversation disheartens me. I was disappointed with the number of candidates last year, and I’m disappointed this year as well. Not because I have any driving urge to have anyone on the current board thrown off, or feeling any changes at the board level that will magically fix issues I see. But because many of the MNFurs board members are also high level Furry Migration staff members, and I’m concerned for the day that we end up with the “Hit By a Metaphorical Bus” event leaving both organizations in serious hurt and possible collapse.I will point out my greatest disappointment at this moment. Which is:
There is no conversation.
There is nothing posted yet about what each candidate’s goals and visions are. What future improvements they are willing to spear head to improve our community. We’re almost a week out from the “first debate” and frankly I know more about the potential US Presidential candidates of each party than I know about our candidates. If someone should be upset about anything frankly this is seriously a higher concern. As lack of knowledge and conversation creates apathetic.
Even worse:
Absentee Ballots Sent / Postmarked: March 6th
The debate will happen AFTER the Absentee Ballots will need to be sent.. And yet those voting this way have no clue what any of the candidates’ visions are at this time. Will they by March 6th?
For those here looking for answers to questions – I know the elections team sent out a set of questions to each candidate to fill out that should be posted sometime soon! I know I’ll definitely answer questions on my thread post directed at me, and look forward to hearing from you!EDIT: Whoop, beaten to the punch by seconds!
