Hello: Here is a copy of the convention results from last weekend. I apologize for taking so long to get them out, but I am in the middle of finals week and not a whole lot is happening besides that at this point. I will get the minutes out later this week. I am sure there are typos in this, I have not proofed it. Feel free to get them back to me.
