Guest Amber Posted March 31, 2011 at 10:33 PM Report Share Posted March 31, 2011 at 10:33 PM Within a school district there are several democratic committees. One of the committees stated at their regular meeting that they will endorse NO candidates. A letter was received, from all chairs of the borough's democratic committees stating they will hold a meeting, allow candidates to speak and secretly vote on who the party will endorse. Can one chair state that no endorsements will be given and two weeks later state they are partnering with the other two and select candidates they will endorse?

Conditions change and people are free to change their minds. It's called "politics" (not to be confused with parliamentary procedure). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
