I am on the ballot for the 2025 NRA Board of Directors election thanks to my nomination by Todd Vandermyde and the Nomination Committee making me one of the \u201cofficial\u201d nominees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I understand thanks are due to committee member Bob Mansell, a reformer, who pushed my nomination. I wish to thank him for his efforts and will do my best to live up to his confidence in me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As I am out of town &#8211; way out of town to be honest &#8211; I am going to link to NRA In Danger for the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/nraindanger.wordpress.com\/2024\/08\/27\/a-second-directors-purge-begins\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/nraindanger.wordpress.com\/2024\/08\/27\/a-second-directors-purge-begins\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">full list<\/a><\/strong> of those nominated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Without diminishing the efforts of those who put me on the ballot through the Nominating Committee, I will continue to seek to also be on the ballot by petition. Being \u201cdouble nominated\u201d to me indicates that I am on the ballot, first and foremost, due to the efforts of the rank and file voting members. To me, that is supremely meaningful and I hope it will be to you as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There were many good people who did not get on the Nominating Committee\u2019s ballot such as former NRA President Jim Porter among others. If he decides to run by petition, I certainly will post his petition and circulate it. There are other reformers who were not nominated and I\u2019ll do the same for them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are eligible to sign my petition, please do so. It can be found <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/2024\/08\/21\/running-for-nra-board-of-directors.html\">here<\/a><\/strong>. You can email me at jpr995 AT gmail DOT com for the mailing address. I must submit at least 398 good signatures on October 8th to be on the ballot by petition.<\/p>\n<div style=\"margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;\" class=\"sharethis-inline-share-buttons\" ><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Prepared to be as shocked as I was when I heard the news.
