Frank has asked me to post this:
After checking with the office, I can tell you that this information is correct, but has been totally misunderstood. What this post claims are ballots returned were, instead, nomination forms sent in to the office. The AMHA does not know how many members vote. The ballots go to the AMHA’s auditor and this organization simply tells the AMHA who won, not the margin of victory or how many votes were cast. So, in this post, two pieces of information taken from seperate sheets of paper, both factual but misunderstood, have been put together and presented as something they are not.

Region 9 1195 ballots mailed out at the cost of $1,159.15 11 were returned for elections.
Regions 10 432 ballots mailed out at the cost of $298.08 3 were returned for elections.
Region 11 244 ballots mailed out at the cost of $168.36 none were returned for elections
Region 13 408 ballots mailed out at the cost of $236.64 21 were returned for elections.
