I thought we moved away from disenfranchisement to a 60% threshold.  I  
do not accept the first clause's restriction against nomcom appointees  
voting in the election.
Also, I still believe that the Board representative should be elected  
by the entire council and not just one of the chambers.  i think  
making one chamber responsible for the nomination is a good  
alternative, but i think ti weakens the Board member to have only been  
elected by half the group.
