I think it is time that we consider that we are part of the USGenWeb and stop thinking that we are just our own separate project. That has been our problem, thinking we are not part of the Whole.

Last year's election was called for by the Advisory Board, not by the state. The EC was under the direction of the AB, not the state. This is not a matter of life or death, is it? I don't see any reason we can't wait until the EC is able to hold our elections. This will also give time for the GRC to wrap up the guidelines, & get them on the ballot. Are the elections for SC going to be every year? Ecery 2 years or how often? Bettie <>< -- Enjoy Your Freedom & God Bless Our Troops!!
