2016 Soldier of Fortune Endorsements NRA Board of Directors

[Hummer70]

Vern is right, only vote for the ones you really want and your vote will be far more effective.

Bob Brown has endorsed folks in the past that I have known (some) for upwards of 40 years and they were elected or re-elected.

I would have voted for them anyway but when I realized he was endorsing the people I was voting for anyway that reinforced my confidence and his recommodations/endorsements are sound.

Thus when he endorses folks I do not know I trust his judgment on those as well.

I just got word this morning via email that the snail mail ballots hit Wisconsin yesterday.

 

[Panzerschwein]

People still read SOF?

 

[Hummer70]

Wall Street Journal article says their site gets 430,000 hits a year and face book traffic is just under a million.

My military contacts says it is very popular with military now that it is digital so mags don't have to run them down and catch them.

 

[modifiedbrowning]

I am a life member and have the digital version of AR. I received my ballot yesterday.

 

[MaterDei]

Can you vote online?

 

[Hummer70]

MaterDei
No if you get your magazine on line you will/should get a ballot via snail mail. The NRA Secretary called me and told me they went out about 8 days ago. NRA said allow two weeks, if you don't get it call 800 672 3888 and have your membership card ready to give them the number.

I got a email yesterday morning from a retd SF SGM buddy who told me he got his Saturday morning, filled it out and took it right back to PO immediately.

 

[Hummer70]

Talked to a friend in Montana yesterday and he has yet to receive his March TAR. He is going to give it another week and start calling.

 

[Hummer70]

Saw on a thread last night a guy in the DC area nor his kids have got their magazines yet! ! ! ! !

 

[Hummer70]

I was at a FONRA in Aiken, SC Friday evening and was talking to a State House of Rep friend who is NRA Life Member and he has yet to get a ballot. And he is in my district ! ! ! ! !

I sent him the 800 number to call Monday morning.

 

[4v50 Gary]

I sent my ballot in a few weeks ago.

 

[G.E. Lee]

Got mine in the mail today...

 

[Hummer70]

G. E. Lee What part of the country are you in? The magazines started going out around Feb 20.

I was at a FONRA last Friday in SC and friend told me he had not got his yet.

 

[G.E. Lee]

I live in in VA south of the James...

 

[Hummer70]

You should have had your ballot two weeks ago. Just got a email from a SC State House of Rep member who had not received a ballot. He called today and held for 28 minutes and had to go into session so he hung up but said he memorized the recording ! ! ! ! ! !

 

[Hummer70]

I called a Director friend and advised him and he called HQ and got it squared away.

[Hummer70]

Sorry, don't know how that last one got posted twice. At any rate my Director Friend called the Secretary of the NRA and gave him the names, addresses and phone numbers and the Secretary called both of them and left messages for both that new ballots were going out in mail the same day.

 

[Hummer70]

I heard from two folks today that still have not got their ballots so I passed it to a NRA Director I know and he called HQ to pass the word.
Please check with your friends to make sure no one is left out that wants to vote.

NRA Board voting

I appreciate Hummer70's note that NRA ballots are sometime not delivered to members who are edible to vote. I guess I'll have to call NRA at 800-672-3888 and ask for a duplicate

 

[Hummer70]

Vern Humphrey is absolutely right. Voting for others is a vote against the ones you want.

Got email last night from Director Herb Lanford who was leaving HQ on the way home to SC. He is on election committee.

The last batch of snail mail ballots goes in the mail April 6th. If you have not got ballot by 13th call 800 number quick. They have to be back in by May 1st or won't be counted.

 

[Hummer70]

Last ballots go out tomorrow, call the 800 number if you don't have yours by Aprill 13th.

[Htfiremedic]

This is a great guy!

Folks, I'm new on the forum, just happened to see a post by Humpy, Mark Humphreville A out his bid for the NRA. I happen to know him and can honestly say that he's a great person and is always open to chat. I speak with him weekly, if not more. As a retired LEO, Firefighter/Paramedic, Mason and a good ole' country boy, I can say HE IS THE MAN!
Keep Chargin' Brother!

 

[Hummer70]

If you don't have your ballot call NRA today at the above number.
