I guess as a reward for the screwed up ballot in the latest Journal, there is no online voting for prospective BoD members. Why do I not feel upset? ;) Well, it's just that years ago I watched one of the Space Shuttles launch and then begin to burn, explode, and kill all the crew. Also a result of low-bidder, buddy-buddy bidding! It's not anyone's fault, just ask them and they will tell you. Good luck in the future and have a GREAT DAY!
 
Barry,

Development of an online voting capability has been set aside for the time being, due to other priorities and time constraints.

In regard to the mail-in ballot – I spoke to the St Paul office for to get the final word on this…

1) If you have to use scotch tape to seal the envelop for mailing in your ballot, that will in no way interfere with your ballot being counted.
2) If you destroy the mail in envelop in the process of removing it from the Journal, you may use another envelop to mail your ballot. Just be sure to put the same address on the substitute envelop as was on the original envelop.
3) If you destroy your ballot in the process of removing it from the Journal, a replacement will not be supplied.
