Not quite yet Christian
I would urge everyone to exercize their democratic right to vote.
We have two excellent candidates who are standing. Mark is new blood and enthusiastic; Scott has kindly offered to render him assistance in his new role if elected. Todd is not quite so new and has established experience. Being the previous incumbent of the job I know what is required.
I had not intended to endorse either candidate. However my opposite number in the LGA has seen fit to give an early personal endorsement to Mark, as is his democratic right. I have spent the week looking at all the postings from both candidates and their answers to some very searching questions at times. The quality of both is high. I've decided now that the deadline for closure of these threads will soon pass to finally endorse Todd. This is a personal opinion only and should in no way be taken by some to be prejudicial to the membership as a whole. All I ask is that everyone takes a few seconds to think about what has been written and to cast their vote. The more votes cast the less the case for accusations of favouritism and factions.
Best wishes to both
