I would like to point out that neither of my proposals are even going to be adopted unless a large swathe of people change their minds suddenly and against character, so y'all are massively overthinking this...
As for the pledge, I agree with G., it's entirely unreasonable. The Assessor's ability to resolve proposals out of order (even occasionally for personal gain, although I confess I don't think I've never used it to the tune of 11.8% of a win before) is neither new nor historically controversial. And if you disagree, well, feel free to announce your intent to impeach me. -twg ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐ Original Message ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐ On Tuesday, November 27, 2018 5:14 PM, Kerim Aydin <ke...@u.washington.edu> wrote: > > > If I were the assessor, I wouldn't make this pledge personally.
