DA June 2021 Convention - Chattanooga TN

[Lumine]

My sincere thanks to ASV, but I'm not standing for either office. I strongly believe Transit and WB would make a formidable duo (as they've already been on the campaign trail).

[wxtransit]

I'll stand for vice-chair.

[wxtransit]

I don't want to assume too much, but preemptive congratulations to our likely Senators-elect! As the men of honor and competence that I know them to be, I'm sure they'll make the voters and the party proud.

Victorious or not, as Acting Chair I would like to congratulate the LT / Ninja ticket for an excellent showing, and for delivering what can only be described as an impressive performance in what is admittedly a complex time for the nation.

Congratulations aside, due to the regrettable departure of our Chair - who'll be sorely missed - it will be necessary for us to hold a leadership election. I won't be standing for reelection as Vice Chair, so both offices will be open for people to declare for.

Thus, a nominating period of 48 hours for Chair and Vice Chair is hereby open.

Thank you, Lumine. These words mean a lot to me. My hope is to live up to our party's ideals and the mandate the voters have entrusted me with during my time in office.

[GM Team Member and Senator WB]

I will stand for chair.

I believe I've learned from my mistakes as chair and can lead the party forward, continuing our progress. We have the momentum. We just need the right person at the wheel to steer us. I believe I am that person, with transit there to make sure I don't screw up again

[Lumine]

The vote is open! 48 hours.

[GM Team Member and Senator WB]

Thank you Lumine for your service here as acting chair.

I'm kinda surprised to be back in my old spot just 2 months later, but hey, things change fast around here.

Anyway, the only remaining business is selecting a city for August's convention. Pursuant to Art. 2 Section 2 of the bylaws, city nominations are restricted to the region of Fremont.

Members have 48 hours to nominate locations. Reminder that there is no limit on how many cities you can nominate, though please don't go overboard for my own mental health please

[wxtransit]

Thank you Lumine, honored to be of the party's service!

I nominate Santa Fe, New Mexico, my old hometown when I lived in Fremont.

[Utah Neolib]

I nominate Salt Lake City, Utah

[Attorney General, Senator-Elect, & Former PPT Dwarven Dragon]

I nominate Flagstaff, Arizona
