Wrapping It Up

Thanks to those who responded privately to the post below, and even greater thanks to those who posted their comments below.


The responses that I have received confirm that, by and large, the members who decided not to attend the Monaro Folk Society AGM had no idea that there would be a second presidential candidate, and that the result was not representative of their views.

Allowing for family memberships each having two voting members, there were about 300 folk eligible to vote. Needless to say, only a fraction of this number attended the AGM.

However the response also suggests a lack of interest in the subject. If someone is willing to do the work then does anything else matter?

I can see this point and I think we should all be appreciative of the significant role that has been undertaken.

The response has not shown strong support for changing the rules, so best not to worry about it I reckon. Let's Dance!

Cheers
Lance
