Sarah,

The way I read the bylaw and the way I am recalling the bylaw was interpreted in a somewhat recent election is that if a Presidential Candidate drops out then the ticket has to be disqualified. There are only provisions for the ticket to continue if the Vice Presidential Candidate drops out before the voting stage.

Do you read the bylaw differently? I was surprised by your response to Brian’s post.

I know this isn’t my question nor I have a right but I am a little exasperated by its existence, shocked to be more precise.

The recession was due to a very credible health concern, the ticket has been unvalidated and I feel this question is insensitive and the matter should be dropped, moved on to private if necessarily pressing.

I applaud the election co-ordinators response in showing her compassion and understanding towards the members involved, and I am frustrated that someone may be more concerned about the wording and/or decisions made than someone’s health.
