[Nfb-krafters-korner] FW: 2018 Krafter's Korner Election Survey

[Ramona Walhof]

Do we know that nobody else wants to seek office? Or is this the nominating
committee recommendations?   I haven't heard Cindy say she would not
continue as Treasure if asked.  Also, members need to be reminded who is
serving on the Board and not up for election this year. If one of them is
elected to an office, then that position becomes open.  

I don't object to the survey if it makes people feel better, but nobody can
really express opinion unless he or she knows the complete picture. 
I haven't heard  enough from Tammy or Joyce to know at this point which one
I would vote for for  President.  Joyce has done a wonderful job and has
said she wants a successor.  Is this too soon?  Why is Tammy not running for
Vice President to prepare? Does Jill really want to be President in two
years?   It is not urgent that I know these things today, but if they are at
the convention, I will ask. If they are not there, then I am concerned about
how strong a President or Vice President anyone can be.  Not every leader
has to be at convention every year, but the President must interact with the
entire NFB in order for the Division to be strong. 
I am not seeking office, but I have seen how things work in the NFB for more
than fifty years, and I have seen what things don't work.  And I care about
both the Division and the NFB.

Hi Ramona and all,

I believe the survey is for those who cannot attend the convention to have
the opportunity to have their voices heard. When the results of the survey
are posted, all of us can get an idea of how the members who are not
attending convention feel. yes, there is only one position with more than
one person running, but it would be interesting to see who folks would like
to vote for if they were able to attend convention.
In future years, we may have more than one person running for other
positions.



Make this a wonderful day!
Cathy F
