June 13 2009 Kit Carson Electric Coop Annual Meeting Results Reposted in 2018 to understand the quorum issues today

CEO Luis Reyes talks to gadfly Jerome Lucero before the Kit Carson annual meeting, while Art Ortiz happily enjoys his complimentary coffee & donut.

On June 13, 2009 after a long discussion on whether there was a quorum, under the "Mason's" rules of parliamentary procedure, the Kit Carson Electric Membership voted to overrule the Parliamentarian (hired for the first time in most people's memory) and proceed with consideration of the bylaw changes. They voted down the bylaws change to reduce the Board number from 11 to 7, but passed the bylaws change to limit Board members to two 4 year terms.

About Mason's Rules or Manual vs Roberts Rules
These rules were compiled to work with Legislative bodies, not for those controlled by the members, which mostly are guided by Robert's Rules. For example, Robert's Manual requires motions to be seconded, but Mason's does not. Thus in the meeting at the Kit Carson Coop, Al Park mixed the two - using Mason's Manual for the Quorum, but Robert's Rules by asking for seconds to motions. Mason's was developed for State Legislatures, with a fixed number of members, where a quorum is usually a majority of the body, which can easily visually determined.

Barsamian will explore the history of U. S. imperialism and predatory capitalism and the “Obama Doctrine” in relation to traditional U.S. rules of engagement, and mass media's role in drumming up support for violent means to uncertain ends. Barsamian sets the historical context of U. S. complicity in the death squads of the mid 1960’s in Indonesia revealed in “The Act of Killing,” the chilling documentary film to be screened at the Harwood, Oct. 24/25. Does this complicity continues to this day?
