politicking
Politicking includes campaigning for yourself (or your friends campaigning for you as well), bashing other candidates (she shouldnt win, shes so bad), reading your speech or showing your platform to anyone before elections, voluntarily sharing your candidacy with others (Yes, I am totally running for Mazkirah!!), telling people about your candidacy or the candidacies of others throughout the region, discussing your ideal board (it would be so cool if you were Sganit and I was Nsiah!), or discussing your plans for the region with others before elections. To be honest, if you are considering running for regional board, I should not have to explain politicking to you. You are aspiring to be a top leader in Miami Region, and politicking by default makes you unqualified to serve. You may only discuss your candidacy with your parents, Alex and me. Discussing your candidacy with Alephs is also not a good idea. If you have any hesitations about something being considered politicking, it probably is, and you should be safe and avoid it. If you are caught politicking, your delegate status will be dropped immediately, and you will not be permitted to run. Being a regional board member means having integrity and acting ethically. Remember to respect yourself and other candidates before, during, and after the entire election process. Remember -- WERE ALL SISTERS.
q Mazkirah
I understand that if elected to the position above, I must serve Miami Region and the International Order to the utmost of my ability. I also understand the responsibility required to hold a position on The Executive Board, I am fully aware of the duties of the position I am running for, and I am ready to carry them out in full. I further understand that I am bound by all BBYO policies and regulations and will serve the position with utmost dedication, responsibility, and conduct. I also understand that if not elected, I have the option to slide to the election of a subsequent position, be nominated for another election, or drop out of the election process. At which time I will seek other opportunities to serve Miami Region and the Bnai Brith Girls. I will not become frustrated but will instead learn for my experience. X__________________________________________ (Candidates Signature) I understand the time, commitment, and integrity that my daughter will put forth in the following year on Miami Region BBG Executive Board should she be elected, and I hereby approve of her running.
