Vincent you have been doing a wonderful and very large job on the election committee. I thank you sincerely for this fine work that you and the rest of the committee has done. We need to trust you guys 100%. But I would like to say this sooner and not later that I think that you as a candidate yourself should not at the same time be sitting on the election committee- for your own sake as a serious and very skilled candidate to a seat on the board.
