Not sure why it matters. This story applies to many counties in many states across America. We should all be ultra vigilant to hold our elected officials accountable for securing free and fair elections.
I was told that the wording at the state level needed to be changed from stating “machines must be used”. to “machines may be used”. The wording was voted on and passed after the “hanging chads” after that election...
That's the purpose of resolutions... to put political pressure on politicians to do the job we sent them to do. It needs to be changed to "machines may NOT be used".
Regarding Robert's Rules of Order, I've never liked them. I am guessing they are one of the multitude of deceptive tools the cabal in power uses to confuse us. I'm going to do some research on them. Are these the rules of order that our founding fathers used in their meetings? They are pompous jargon and bureaucratically undemocratic. I've participated in hundreds of orderly and productive meetings with rules of order other than RRoO. What are the rules of order used by the Republican Assemblies?
So, it's not a question of whether we like RRoO, or not. Our County Model Constitution requires that we follow Parliamentary Procedure, which in the U.S. is Robert's Rules of Order, 12th Edition.
For more background on the history of the editions going back to 1876, see the link below to wiki. As far as our Founding Fathers... yes, they followed Parliamentary Procedure, which was later changed to RRoO (or RONR).
As far as establishment cabals??? No, they generally don't even know the Rules. They prefer to make them up, to fit what outcome they seek. I won't deny that 12th Edition hasn't been influenced by the deep state bureaucrats, it has. But, it is far better than their preferred "The rules are whatever I say they are, today". Besides, Robert's only applies to issues not specifically addressed in an organization's various constitutions or bylaws
What rules of order were you following other than Robert's?
We use Robert's, in conjunction with our bylaws at the Republican Assembly.
thank you for the explanation. The rules I used were ancestral indigenous ways, Elders' Councils. They foster a horizontal and very participatory way of interacting. They require much more time to arrive at decisions, which is done by consensus. This experience respects my whole humanity, and does not allow for tricks and deceptions as RRoO do. Similar to the way Quakers work.
I'm going to assume that MT and TJ are in Florida, since it was mentioned in the third from the last paragraph of the article.

We shouldn't elect people we can't rely on to be and stay honest and competent.
If and when we discover they aren't, they should die in prison.
I fully agree. Sometimes, they don't show their true colors until it's too late. Now it's up to us to clean up the mess.
If it can't be handled by lifetime incarceration, it is above my paygrade.
