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…Permalink On twitter.com

I think CB1 passed; onto CB5, on electing DSA’s national leadershipPermalink On twitter.com

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.Permalink On twitter.com

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.On twitter.com

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

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.Permalink On twitter.com

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.Permalink On twitter.com

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