Default Yet another nominee was overlooked: Don Gruenler

Another committed, long term, ex-ACNA board member was not allowed to participate in the election. Don is not a chapter rep and was not notified by anybody that the date had been moved. The victims keep turning up. I wonder who else was skipped.

Oh, and the Chapter Rep who failed to notify Don of the deadline change? Well, Don's part of the Rocky Mountain Chapter, so it was either Dean Esmail or Kasim Esmail.

Default One more, that makes four? <'come on!> 4: Don Gruenler.

More power struggles we don't know about?

Did he submit an application?

So much for the trickle down word of info.......

&lt;Seriously&gt; who looks bad now?

How does an ACNA member hear one of these ACNA monthly meetings? Gotta make pop corn!

Default Once again, the date never changed. It was July 31st from the outset this year.

Once again, if someone is interested in running, don't you think they'd at least find out when they had to submit their application?

Default Yes it did change. It has always been August 15. Always.

And where do you find that it was changed at the outset this year? There was no vote, no notification on the website, nothing to the members.

Other than the Chapter Reps, nobody was notified. And Kasim certainly didn't notify Don.

Furthermore, when Kris Loveless contacted Karen to get an application, she never mentioned the submission date, even though it was two days away. Seems it slipped her mind.

Yeah, the date did change. No amount of denying it changes that fact.

Default Re: Once again, the date never changed >>But the year before it wasn't July 31 was it?<<

Back in time it was August 15th or so.

I even hear it made it further out towards Sept some time ago.........

Default Why does that matter? People aren't applying for '06, '07.

The '08 date was distributed several times. It was decided by ACNA BoD and confirmed by them.

Default Re: Why does that matter? BECAUSE changing the dates requires a BoD motion, and the motion would be

in the minutes?

See my new thread above.

Default That is if Kasim bothered to inform Don of the change in date...

Since Kasim was running was running for the ACNA BoD, he'd have a vested interest in not informing Don of the change in date, if only to keep Don offf the ballot.

That is a conflict of interest, plain and simple...

Default It seems you are wrong, per Dean Treadway and John Horner.

This went to all the chapter reps, including yours.<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/acna/msgs/123.phtml">Link to John's email announcement.</a></li></ul>
