Spinklerguy28 or Scot623:

Can you tell the membership when the next election will be and what seats we will be voting on? Sorry for the post here but I've noticed more of our membership using this forum.

We do not discuss MOC internal operations here. Please ask on our forum.

Also note this was asked and answered at our monthly teamspeak meeting last Tuesday.

Not all members can or do use teamspeak & I can find no mention of this from last week on MOC's site?

Can you provide a link to the answers to these simple questions? I may have just missed it (link) or topic thread somehow. Should I search under elections?

I have cross posted this question on MOC but have gotten no response yet?

PD i figured the MOC crowd would have set one or more up to continue promoting OC,

i OC on my ride all the time , including other states.

I figured all the good looking / good natured guy/ gals, would saddle up and ride michigan, maybe set it up for next yr, & ride around the perimeter of lower michigan .... Call it a Good will tour
.
Say 200 mile a day ride & stay at camp grounds,that are OC friendly......

PS this just a idea, not saying that anyone has to do it !!

Election info update:

I was informed that the vote may take place sometime in November, thanks Autosurgeon.

It looks like notice is to be given no less than 10 days before the election.

For Election info see Article 5 for the nominating process & Article 6.1 for the four elected seats of: President, Vice President, Treasurer and Secretary.

If you wish to be considered for a seat please pay close attention to Article 5 sections [ 5.4 & 5.5 ]

Update bump

link to MOC leadership hierarchy and contact form.

http://www.michiganopencarry.org/?q=contact

Link to MOC calendar, as of today no info or posts on election I can find (could be there, not saying it isn't).

http://michiganopencarry.org/?q=event/2011/11/16/month/all/all/1

If the elections are to be in November; as a paying member, I would like to see the membership given as much notice as possible to insure a smooth process.

Elections are like bowel movements. The smoother they are, the better you feel, and then you get to flush all the crap away. :-D

It also went to former MOC member's emails, even though they have asked numerous times to be removed from the mailing list....

Interesting... I just read them and no where is it specified that a handgun or pistol being carried openly is the purpose of the organization. Firearms is all it says. So all this brew hah hah about MOC being only for OC of handguns is untrue. Why then doesn't MOC live up to it's by-laws and embrace OC of all firearms?

1.1 Purpose.
To perform charitable activities within the meaning of Internal Revenue Code Section
501(c)(3) and Michigan Tax Code. Michigan Open Carry, Inc is specifically organized
for the purpose of educating the public and all law enforcement agencies on the right to
open carry a firearm and to promote its practice. To bring into closer cooperation any
and all persons interested in any and all aspects of the open carry of a firearm and to
promote and preserve our Second Amendment rights
