Not long ago Doug Parks was in control. There was constant turmoil. He called fellow board member Slobodan Trendic a turd in a news article. You know Trendic. He is the person you admire for the passage of the one million spending limit. Parks tried to remove Trendic from the board. Human resource man, Nate Douty, was caught in the intrigue and fired  

The board Treasurer at the time resigned over her treatment. Parks is a fierce defender of Tom Janasek, the man who constantly verbally attacked GM Viola in public and, as you seem to suggest, a victim of Wheatley  and  possibly Horn.

Ah yes. The good old days. 

Anyway, the point is - if your slate is elected, Parks will be back in power. 

Perhaps, just perhaps, it is best if neither of these two warring faction is back in power. I prefer, given the candidates running, a possible election result of a 3-3 split of the warring factions and a hopefully independent as the seventh. 

That said, my gut is telling me your position may well prevail. Regardless, your position or mine, our HOA will survive to face new and as yet known political turmoil.
