Call In: 1-949-202-1057 Code: 69 96 54# To continue to collect election information status at all five station to be reviewed by the PNB in adherence with motion passed 9/13/21 (traffic reports, cart schedules, etc..) PNB Motion: Whereas the Pacifica Bylaws require the airing of candidate statements and on-air forums with call-in Q&A’s from listeners . and Where as the current LSB election is already in the 4th week of a 9 week balloting period. Therefore, the PNB Elections Committee strongly urges the PNB to instruct the IED within the next 24 hrs to instruct the GMs of all 5 stations to: 1. Air informative and promotional carts about the election and upcoming candidates carts and forums and the members ability to reset their vote. 2. Provide to the PNB and Election Committee a traffic report of scheduled on-air candidate carts that begin airing in rotation around the clock starting at midnight e.s.t. on 9/20/21 pre-empting all programming to accommodate all candidates, with a focus at prime-time drive hour slots in the morning and evening, but not excluding midnight to 6 a.m. . 3. Provide to the PNB and Election Committee a traffic report of scheduled candidate forums allowing for 10 mins per candidate when scheduling so that an hour forum will feature 6 candidates, etc. to be aired in same rotation protocols as stated above starting 9/20/21. AND Discussion of new motion to the PNB to be addressed on 9/ 30: Whereas the ongoing elections for listener and staff delegates at all five stations began and have continued without adequate information for members regarding the candidates and issues, a flaw that is manifest in the low turnout of members who have voted at most stations with only about 3 weeks of the total of 9 weeks of balloting remaining, Resolved that the voting be immediately halted at all 5 stations, and that a joint meeting be convened for both the PNB and the Elections Committee and scheduled by 9/30 so that adequate and Bylaws-required candidate statements and forums can be adequately aired with adequate notice so that the process can be compliant with the Bylaws ; and be it further. Resolved that for the scheduled listener and staff delegate elections next year, no ballots be distributed until adequate and Bylaws-mandated candidate statements and forums have first started to run prior to ballots going out, and continue running during the voting period. | |
