Shawn asked me to help get some official nomination threads going for divisional rep spots. Your division currently has one opening as Shawn (1evilrt) was voted into the VP position after beating Chas in an exec board poll.
Please nominate yourself or another member. The rules are simple. First you must be a paid member to nominate anyone and second the person you nominate must be a paid member as well as an R/T owner (per the bylaws). ONLY PEOPLE IN DIVISION 1 CAN VOTE
In this division with one opening we will limit nominations to 4 individuals. First 4 to accept the nomination will be the considerations so the whole division isnt nominated HAHA! Top vote getter will be the new D1 rep. In the event of a tie we will have to do a run off of just those two individuals in a separate poll.
So far there have been no accepted nominations, although in the other thread there were lots of nominations. So lets do them here officially. One thing that needs to be commented on, in the interest of transparency to the members, is PIE was nominated for a rep spot (not sure if it was serious or not). Going by what has transpired in years past, vendors who operate a business for profit and advertise to the group were not allowed to be reps of this non profit club due to conflict of interests. The likes of John Mercedes, Randy Pile, Jonas Janek were all told no throughout the years. There are members who make things to help people out such as myself (and technically I lost my ass on some things LOL), paint things for members like Shawn does, help build motors like Danno, part tons of trucks out like Chas and Jim did over the years or Chad in canada who basically just does a group buy a year and donates to the club national meets. None of us are doing this for a living and would have no implications of not doing so any longer, whereas a vendor who makes a living off the membership is in a different boat.
I will update this thread as people accept the nominations. If you want to be a rep dont be afraid to pay your dues and nominate yourself
Lets leave nominations open until Thursday night at 11:59pm - Poll will start friday and run for 1 week.
Good luck fellas
