Most party members are not able to attend the convention. Being in FL
it would not have been a far trip for me to go to Atlanta for the last
convention but I was not able to get the time of from work to go. The
convention next year is in OR which for those of us in the south east
is a journey. If I were to go I would go by plane and that would
probably cost a bit. I think that those who don't attend should be
able to vote by proxy.
