congratulation !!
I count only 47 states you won!
A Big Congratulations, Susan!
I’m looking forward to a bright future for USCF with you and your team as EB members.
Susan:
Can you explain in a clear way the results and its implications and if this situation gives you what you need to comply to your promises.
I am not from United States and I dont live there either…
Thanks and Congratulations!
Good Idea Tim. I hope Susan becomes President also.
Congratulations to the 4 winners and to Susan who won 48 states.
It was good to see Oklahoma united behind Jim Berry. I am sure we can all rest assured that the disagreement in Oklahoma whatever it was is settled as everyone joined together and voted for the Oklahoma candidate who is going to make a great EB member. I hope and expect Jim will be elected in the next election to a full 4 year term.
And a big Thank You to the members of the USCF who saw clearly and elected 4 very fine candidates. I look forward to some changes.
Felicitations!
This is a great day for USCF.

This … Lafferty is at it again. Doesn’t he realize that he was the one who caused problems for all USCF members? He’s the one everyone pointed to as the source of the chaos. He’s the one everyone pointed to show what not to do. But of course he’s too arrogant and obnoxious to admit that he’s wrong.
