debating amendments to amendments! You’d think serving in one legislative body would have me got me tired enough of legislative procedure, but nope, I guess I didn’t learn my lesson…

First up is a constitution & bylaws amendment to strike regional requirements from the charter. Undecided on this; will listen to debate.

.@HondaWang speaking in favor of CB1; it’s so weird hearing socialists making fiscally conservative arguments, lol (that’s not necessarily a critique, btw!)

I think CB1 passed; onto CB5, on electing DSA’s national leadership

CB5 seems pretty reasonable; I’m leaning towards it… I can see there being an argument against it based on being tired of voting on stuff, but if I don’t want to vote on stuff in the future, I just won’t. Abstention is always an option.

Motion to divide; ugh…

motion to divide failed, so we’re voting on CB5 as a whole next. I’m still leaning in favor of it; democracy is good.

Next is CB4, on electing DSA’s National Director. I think I’ll vote yes on this one, too.

The argument that “this isn’t a politicized position” goes against my view that EVERYTHING is politicized; there’s no such thing as a non-political position.

and, as I argued on the previous motion, if you’re tired of there being too many elections (which is a valid complaint), just don’t vote in them. No one’s forcing you to vote in all these new votes being created.

While we’re voting on CB4, results for CB5 are back: it failed. Oh well, whatever, I didn’t really care that much anyways.

Stuff passes on acclamation. We’ve hit the end of the block and are motioning to recess now.
