As has been previously posted. The placement of names on the ballots will be different in many cases and more or less random.
Get a life, Snowflake.
Yea, but my club requires membership.
Any others we should be voting for?
WYF!!! Wallace was number 17 on my ballot. Something fishy here.
This would be why there's no Ballot in mine. My 5 years is in MarchI think you have to be a member for five consecutive years in order to vote.
Anyone else on the ballot we should stay away from or that are good to vote for?
It means they want a show of no bias.He was #1 on my ballot. For whatever reason they seem to be printing different ballots. I don't think it means anything.
I didn't get my ballot yet.... I get e-delivery of the mag, but the ballot has always come in the mail.

HA you need a new club!
True, or a Life member.I think you have to be a member for five consecutive years in order to vote.
Is GOAL even sending out ballots anymore? I haven't received one in many years now. Life Member and no address change to blame to date.GOAL, and the NRA, should consider one of the professional online voting companies. You can get options like online, postal mail, 800 number or any combination thereof with the plausable deniability of chicannery by use of an independent outside firm and boost your voting percentage. Ooops, guess I answered my own question there .
And, if GOAL continues the multiple order name technique, color code the different ballot types. Having all three on the same color paper made counting the names marked off a time consuming nightmare.
Nope, widely held mis-information.It's an insurance issue. I have no problem with it. You obviously are not a member. You have access to 1 2 3 and 600 yard ranges with archery, skeet, trap, indoor and outdoor 25 50 and 100 foot ranges as well as 25, 50, 100 yard covered outdoor range? 24 hour access and no dues after 65 after a lengthy membership. I don't need another club.
You might want to consider joining, but then you would have to join the NRA.
Keep in mind the #1 requirement to become NRA endorsed insurance is payment of a commission to the NRA on every policy.NRA hasn't required full club membership to get insurance thru them for many years. I learned this many years ago from one of my club's investigation into insurance options for the club.
It would be interesting to do a multivariate analysis to see if there is any meaningful difference in voting patterns based on which of the five ballot variations a member received.Just voted for Jim only. He was #1 out of 39 on the list. Good Luck Jim.
