You cannot vote is the info is incorrect and misleading. A message was sent to Laura. If a constant contact by the VP is sent out like it had to be last year to clarify, then people should vote. BUT if people see the pro as stated that the board passed to reduce the board to 8 members, then it is misleading and people may vote against just because of that. Until clarified, people should reserve or be sure they understand the info is incorrect. Period. You don't have to ask a board member if it is correct or not, the minutes are the account and clearly state the board will be reduced by 6 to 13, not 8. Molly In a message dated 9/4/2012 1:26:54 P.M.

If people are confused with verbiage in the ballot, that was approved by AKC, then they should contact a board member for clarification and NOT reserve voting.
