Proposal:
I agree that the SVCA should move to join the AKC and continue our
recognition process so that our breed and our parent club, the SVCA, may be
fully recognized by AKC and so that we may participate in the full activities of
the AKC. This would also mean that we would follow all AKC rules and procedures.

Just a note from GS re: 9/15/04
election
I was somewhat disappointed at the 43% return in this
election so I did some research.
In checking statistics with Time/Newsweek for actual voting
in the USA, I found this information:
The average is 41% overall. Thus the SVCA vote is within norm for USA voting, though it would be good if we could get the percentage to be higher. |

(revisions of Constitution/Bylaws/Standard/Code of Ethics (name only)
Ballots sent out per secretary: 139
Ballots received by 10/18/04: 62

For any of these changes on the ballots to pass required a 2/3 majority of those
votes returned. In this ballot, the required number was 41 votes for passage.
