I agree with Karen about a vote confirmation. It was unclear to me exactly how to respond so I sent one email addressed to all three committee members. Karen says she sent 3 individual emails to the three committee members. Did our emails arrive? Should I have sent 3 individual emails?

Lynn, I sent one email with all three addresses cut and pasted. I did not say I sent three emails however I see how you can construe that from my "I did copy and paste the three emails" which actually should have been three email addresses. I looked in my sent folder and it went out. Karen On Thu, Feb 19, 2015 at 9:06 AM, Lynn Brandvold via <[email protected]> wrote: > I agree with Karen about a vote confirmation.

Did our emails arrive? Should I have sent 3 >individual emails? Lynn, We prefer you send one email that is addressed/copied to the three committee members. Otherwise, we have to email each other to confirm that everyone received a copy of the vote. In the last year, I have been involved in perhaps a half a dozen in-house elections and all of the rest of them have been comfortable with the 3 person system as sufficient insurance that a vote was received. If your carrier accepts the mail you send, and you don't receive a bounce notice from the carrier(s) of one or more of the 3 committee members, the chances of every copy of your email being "lost" is extremely remote. National elections use a script that delivers a "success" page when your vote is completed. The three of us have to do everything manually. If you, or anyone, would like a confirmation email, write to me privately. Pat Asher Election Committee
