Electing or not electing someone based solely on one vote is like picking a stud dog based on ears alone. Having a Board of Directors instead of just one makes it likely that the best result can come out of any vote - in spite of different points of view. I don't for a second believe that any member of this Board (or any past Board) was voting with the idea of hurting our club or breed. Each one voted according to their opinion and belief that they were doing the best thing for the GSDCA, and I won't condemn any of them for that, and will look at everything I can about each candidate - the same as I would if the "YES NO" vote had never happened.
