RE: [ga] Funding of ICANN Board candidate travel expenses and Election timing.

["Peter de Blanc" <pdeblanc@usvi.net>]

That is not a well thought out comment. We are only talking about a
small amount of money here, an air ticket and some hotel. Probably about
US $ 2,500.00

25 persons paying $ 100 each would cover it.

In fact, I would be happy to match your donation of $ 100 each to the
candidates who can not afford the ticket.

So much for a level playing field for all candidates. Instead, those
with 
the deepest pockets and the richest supporters are given advantage.
