Guest Jean Posted June 15, 2015 at 08:39 PM Report Share Posted June 15, 2015 at 08:39 PM How do you keep unqualified people from running for office? For example, person is unable to read or write, or has held the office before and been unable to do the tasks properly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
