This does not bode well for the membership of Interex!  Interex, using dues
money from dues paying members, sent ballots to all members... and now must
do it again.

What a waste!  If you are a dues paying member, and you get a ballot, all it
takes is a few well thought-out checkmarks, put it in an envelope and mail.
This ballot was a no-brainer and took me less than 5 minutes to handle in
all.

I can't be apathy, can it?  There were some quality candidates on the
ballot...

Well, looks like we have to do it again... let's hope that members will be a
bit more considerate and vote.

Thanks for bringing this to our attention, Steve...

Best Regards,
Joe
