[NA-Discuss] Election time

[Jeffrey A. Williams]

Robert and all,

  Thank you for reminding us all.  But quite frankly if the election
is contested, which I believe it will be, I would rather have a
third non-member party "Oversee" such an election.  Contacting
the NEC ( National Election Commision) would seem to be in order
here.
