Ain't life a *****.
Someone contested the election based on the fact that the ballot box was not at the Chipley HS, which was the first half of Oct. This was the last HS event beore the election was over, Dec 1st. By rule it needed to be there.
This was contested now 1/2 a month after the election is over. Let's just say 2 months later.
The EC had an emergency meeting to figure out what to do.
They decided to hold an entirely new election across the board. They will be mailing new ballots and the new election will be in Jan.
I am all for the rules. So that is how it is.
So, who contested? Many of you have only heard of him because I mentioned him in my post about the "election."
He also happens to be my opponent for VP.
He never once one time ever said anything about this election about anything on any forum or any races. The only person to say anything about anything was me. I even emailed him warning him I was on the ballot and stood a good chance of winning. I suggested he do some campaigning, which he didn't. Well guess what, I did! AND I WON!!
NOW he is protesting.
I wonder if he would have protested had he won?? HMMMM!?? I bet not.
I really didn't want the position to begin with. The I figured if enough thought I could do it, I darn sure try.
Now I am so pissed I can't ****. I thought, alright, I will do what the VP is supposed to do. It can't be that hard. The last two didn't do ANYTHING. I thought, I do will better than the two of them combined.
Thats four years of NOTHING we got from them. The one before the current VP is the daughter of Jack.
Jack is the same guy who is fighting for your rights to ride at NOHVCC. I say Bull****! No one is fighting. They are stroking each other at mine and your expense and I am sick of it!! Now he is going to campaign and do what he has to to get the votes in a club you never hear squat from him. So what, now if he wins we get what? More silence? I know he does good things. He can't be a bad person, but he must report to the members of FTR in some way shape or form. Someone needs to use the membership #'s to make one big voice and create OHV park throughout the state. Quality of life is what off-roading offers to families and alike. Anyway I know I am rambling. I'm just a little dissapointed. This whole "re-election" is going to cost FTR a few thousand dollars. With a stamp, ballot w/printing, and stamp is going to be around a dollar a piece. Nice move. I wonder why he now wants the position so bad?
I don't even know if I want to do it again. Seems his deck is fixed.
The other people on the ballot in different positions should all be required to introduce themselves somhow to the mebership. I mean you look at the ballot and see a bunch names. Shoot if they had of put Dirk Diggler on the ballot, I bet he would have gotten a ton of votes just cause his name is cool.
ALright, I have to get back to work and my girlfriend and I are going out tonight so I wil be missing the chat with Jen tonight.
What should I do?
