    the folks on another post who were complaining about the job being done by Liz should be real happy. You managed to have here removed as our delegate. Now can we expect to see BIG change. Please make sure you post all the great stuff our new delegate is getting done. i would like to nominate Limashooter for the job, but we must have a name. i bet he would do a great job

    Funny stuff BIG PAPA. I know Lima I think. I doubt her job would permit it.
    Austin didn't earn my vote and Liz didn't seem to need it. Austin didn't do any favors for the OSTA. See the attendance during his tenure.
    Austin's pals rushed in to vote. I am sure Liz could have made an appearance here.

    This site was rough on Blair. That helped Liz get the nod. Liz did it herself this time. There wont be changes. lol jmho

    Somebody voted for him. This is a forum that supports the opinions of opposing parties. The way it should be.

    Sometimes the 2nd amendment overshadows the first. They go together.

    Ohio nominates at night and votes in the morning. Not much time for debate.

    butterly, your comment is true, except if this has all been planned ahead of the meeting. Just plan it ahead

    NO! That is a major cop out sir. I may be wrong but I believe you are an ex OSTA officer. How many times did you or other OSTA people visit changing how you elect delegates? Neither candidate campaigned or stated their platform right?

    You don't like who you have as delegate right?

    It is only important enough to complain about the outcome. Not important enough to change the method.

    If you believe the OSTA needs changes, I encourage you to run for a Director position and be part of making those changes happen. The Board can always benefit from members who are willing to contribute their time, ideas, and effort.
    It's easy to criticize from the sidelines, but real change comes from those who are willing to step up, serve, and do the work. If you have ideas that will make the organization better, I sincerely hope you'll put your name forward and help make them a reality.

    That's been my point from my first comment. if you do not like what is going on, you need to voice your opinion and/or get involved by taking a position on the board. Limashooter50 was calling Lis a zero. He never explain what was wrong or how to fix the problem. Easy to bitch and set on the side lines.

    Long time lurker here .....first time typer

    If I were to run this is where I would state my platform. All the above posts say this is the place to start. Strange that some of the above don't want to hear your opinions. Obviously this is the type platform you would need to get your message across. None of the recent OSTA Presidents have wanted to do that. None of the delegates wanted their platform to be public or they would have been here.

    My campaign would start by saying how childish the civil war is between NW and SW Ohio groups. And I would chastise the NE Zone for their apathy.

    And why would anyone want to run if the OSTA can't follow their own by-laws. (HOF and Parliamentary Process) Maybe I should wait until the OSTA thinks it is important to change the election process.

    Look at the OSTA Stats since 2012-2013. Don't tell me not to complain. The sport is in trouble. You guys aren't the answer now. But, you could be.

    Maybe I will run. Fix the process first.

    Would the current leaders listen to me? I doubt it. I read the current leaders remove their own HOF members. Next man or woman up right?

    A little late to ask somebody already elected for that. But, your delegate is invited to tell us his goals.
