Each candidate campaign must submit a list of people attending to nominate or support them on the floor. This list is required for security check-in.
Deadline: Tuesday, April 8
Submit to: Tonya / Christy
List must include: Full name, role (nominator, campaign staff, guest), phone number
Hospitality rooms: Campaigns with large delegations should secure a hospitality room. Still available — reach out via vendor/candidate purchase form. Based on availability, act quickly.
Fee: $50 delegates / $40 alternates — set by county chairs
Bylaws position: Fees are allowable but not strictly required by statute. Dave Williams ran a bill to prohibit fees — it did not pass.
Fiduciary issue: County chairs collecting fees on behalf of the state party and not remitting them is a financial accountability problem under Executive Committee oversight (Article 5).
Fallback: Direct invoicing to individual delegates via Stripe payment links if county chairs withhold.
Need ~80% collection to cover venue costs. Currently ~50% collected. Individual invoicing expected to recoup additional 25-30%.
Ballot type: Paper ballots, hand count
Threshold: A candidate needs at least 30% of votes cast to be placed on the primary election ballot. If no candidate reaches 30% on second ballot, top two candidates are placed on the ballot.

Observers: 2 observers per campaign during vote counting
County chairs: Must bring at least one printed copy of their county bylaws (required for alternate elevation process)

Security operates in escalating rings. If Sean shows up, it's already a bad day.
Risk: Craig Steiner has God-mode access. Zero security protocols. Anyone at his level can change data with no audit trail.
Nancy: Giving access to anyone who asks, including permission to create new users.
Mitigation: Manual snapshots taken by Sean. Can detect changes but cannot attribute who made them.
Fallback: If system is nuked, Sean can spin up replacement instance from backups.
Do not confront Craig or Nancy pre-assembly. Post-assembly: full audit and system replacement.
Include Nancy on Apr 1 + Apr 8 team calls. Purpose: accountability through visibility.
Sean's line: "In ensuring assembly rolls smoothly, we have taken the appropriate precautions to ensure that data is secure."
If pressed: "That's a great question. Let's take that offline."
Goal: She knows eyes are on her. She acts accordingly. Do not tip our hand on specific findings.
