[statecom] Virtual State Committee meeting opening at noon on Saturday, June 14th, to approve delegation to national convention.

[Yarden]

Thank you for the information.

I regret the delay in the publication if the minutes of the May 25th  
meeting.  I must also inform all concerned that due to misinformation  
circulated by Mike Heichman, I have not only failed to inform the  
campaigns of this June 14th deadline for the submission of their lists  
of appointed pledged delegates, but specifically gave incorrect  
information to people in the McKinney campaign leaving them with the  
impression that they have more time to submit their official list.   
Fortunately, I did not do so in any
official capacity but only as someone who might be of help in  
assisting them.

I am sure that you will have no difficulty in correcting this.  And  
please do inform others, such as Mike Heichman of the present state of  
affairs.

THe timely circulation of applications might be considered helpful in  
assisting the State Committee to its decisions, and give informed  
approval to the delegation.
