I've corresponded a few times with my VP in District 2 (Dave
Mathewson.  It sounds as though the EC had only two days'
notice of the proposal.  He had a LOT more questions than
I could answer--I am not up to speed on all the issues.

I was the only person from District 2 who contacted him
before the vote.

Or the NSRCA could write a whole new proposal and submit
it with official endorsement.  We may be wrong in thinking
that the NSRCA's actions carry no more weight than an
individual's actions.

The NSRCA also has to show that it is willing to do the
work that the proposal calls for.  I think that is why NSRCA
endorsement is necessary for getting past the EC.
