JWest 0 #1 November 13, 2015 Why should the average skydiver vote in the elections? I don't vote in elections when I know nothing about the candidates or the reasoning behind the election, but if this is important I will do the required research.

Above find a little of my information and why Im running for a national director spot. Also on that thread many posts on other candidates and candidates themselves making a pitch for your vote. Of course, I look forward to your vote and support; but read a little on the elections. The people elected have influence on skydiving regulations, rules and the image of the sport inot general. To answer your question directly: regular skydivers should vote, because we all care about our sport, we want it to have a good image and grow in participation, and the people elected have a say on how that happens. Regards, Jean-Paul Vega National Director Candidatei keep minimum information on my profile. email is my communication preference. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
