Several campaign statements are here

Disclaimers: Belias plans to pass the corpora test this week.
Adding to elections, I have some corpora changes from our Corpora Committee. I'm adding to the elections instead of our regular 1st week althing so that there's a bit more time for discussion of these three items. Due to life events, Porkins received monarch and quals coordinator excemption to entering the fighting tourney. Everyone has had the neccessary number of items pass quals, passed reeves test, unless noted passed corpora tests, unless otherwise noted entered the tourney.


Corpora, Article I:

Section 2, Item 3
Currently reads
"Westmarch typically meets at various locations in California (“the park”, “the field”) where battlegames,ditches, tournaments, and other events are held using the, most current, Amtgard Rules of Play. Events hosted by the Kingdom are considered to be held by the Kingdom for the purposes of officer jurisdiction and
attendance"

to be replaced with: (italicized words are to show changes, and not to be italicized in the Corpora)

"Westmarch typically meets at various locations primarily in California (“the park”, “the field”) where battlegames, ditches, tournaments, and other events are held using the most current, Amtgard Rules of Play (also referred to as RoP). Events hosted by the Kingdom are considered to be held by the Kingdom for the purposes of officer jurisdiction and attendance."

Reasons for changes:
>Accuracy - Added "Primarily" in front of California, as we have chapters in Nevada and Hawaii.
>Grammatical - Removed extraneous comma in "the, most current"
>Continuity - Added "also referred to as RoP"

Section 2, Item 4:
Currently reads:
"Westmarch sponsors several smaller chapters that also play Amtgard, but are not autonomous kingdoms. Although voting membership in the Kingdom as defined by these bylaws, all chapters within the Kingdom are considered to be part of the Kingdom and under the jurisdiction of the Kingdom officers and these bylaws"

to be replaced with: (italicized words are to show changes, and not to be italicized in the Corpora)
"Westmarch sponsors several smaller chapters that also play Amtgard, but are not autonomous kingdoms. Although voting membership in the Kingdom is defined separately by these bylaws, all chapters within the Kingdom are considered to be part of the Kingdom and under the jurisdiction of the Kingdom officers and these bylaws"

Reason:
Grammatical - changed "As" to "Is".
Clarification - Rephrasing

Aye
Nay
Abstain
Postpone




Section 2: Item 5

Add the following passage as Section 2: Item 5

"This document describes how the Kingdom functions, and unless specified separately, all chapters within the Kingdom shall function as described for the Kingdom."

Reason: Clarification.
