Your comments on this have seemed to suggest that the EC has the power, over and above the Board, to select the election vendor, i.e., that the Board must defer to the EC majority. Perhaps I read your remarks incorrectly in that regard.
Your observation may be valid. However, I realize the board (or a court The Committee understanding its role, abiding by a contracting decision of the Board, and professionally working with the selected election contractor, is not the Committee "caving" to anything or anyone. If the board does not want the committee to have authority to approve a vendor contract, change the Resolution wording. Ms. Jacobs expressed her views forcefully, as did Mr. Farr. They were both acting conscientiously and in furtherance of OPA's interests, as they saw it. To whatever extent there may have been disagreement, neither of them seemed "angry" to me. First, I don't recall characterizing Farr's comments as being angry, so not sure why you mention Farr. As for Cheryl Jacobs, I invite anyone to listen to her words near the end of the Ransdell presentaion and decide for themselves if she seemed angry or not. In my view, she sounded very angry. |

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: I never said otherwise. Your comments on this have seemed to suggest that the EC has the power, over and above the Board, to select the election vendor, i.e., that the Board must defer to the EC majority. Perhaps I read your remarks incorrectly in that regard. The Committee will cave to the will of the board. The Committee understanding its role, abiding by a contracting decision of the Board, and professionally working with the selected election contractor, is not the Committee "caving" to anything or anyone. There was no mistake about the anger in her voice. Ms. Jacobs expressed her views forcefully, as did Mr. Farr. They were both acting conscientiously and in furtherance of OPA's interests, as they saw it. To whatever extent there may have been disagreement, neither of them seemed "angry" to me. |
