WOOF ! Hmmm, Eric got THREE VOTES and was elected with ONE HUNDRED PERCENT of the vote. Now, the Ol' Dog is just taking a wild guess here that Eric voted for himself. So, with just two members votes, he has become a board alternate from Iowa with the chance to sit on the National Board and help make national policy! B)

Okay, I realize all the above board members ran unopposed, but just the same, I'd like to see how many votes they got! You think maybe some of them even got less votes than Landslide Eric (Only kidding, Eric! You are to be commended for running but something is wrong when someone with 3 votes can get someone elected to an alternate National Board Seat!)
