    I'm so impressed with and the campaign he ran. He showed other members what's possible with vital, engaged leadership. I just wish I could've voted for him. Whatever happens, I hope this has strengthened the commitment & resolve of national Guild leaders.

    I am extremely proud of the campaign I ran. It has been a privilege to connect with so many amazing members in a very short amount of time. Thank you for believing in me. I am reviewing the results and will keep everyone posted with a longer response soon.

    I reached Nolan at his home in Arizona. "I had hoped to get one but actually I’m really hopeful that the president will issue many more pardons," he said. "There are a lot of other people that are incarcerated who would be better off at home with their family."

    Another argument from Neal Zaslavsky, Bauman's attorney: that the notice of charges was not sent via USPS registered mail. (The letter makes it clear that "Mr. Bauman will *not* resign from the E-Board").

    In a letter to the party, Bauman's attorney called it a "wholly improper attempt" that is "flawed both procedurally and substantively." Among the arguments was that allegation of misconduct not among the conditions that allows for membership removal, per party bylaws.
