[00:06:18]
AND THERE IS A QUORUM PRESENT.AND I'D LIKE TO WELCOME GUESTS AND MEMBERS.
WE'D LIKE TO WELCOME OUR NEWEST BOARD MEMBER, ANGEL PEREZ. ANGEL, WOULD YOU LIKE TO TAKE A FEW MINUTES TO INTRODUCE YOURSELF? ABSOLUTELY. THANK YOU.
WELL, GOOD MORNING EVERYONE. MY NAME IS ANGEL PEREZ.
I'VE BEEN LIVING AND WORKING IN CAROLINE COUNTY FOR THE LAST TEN YEARS, THE SAME WAY I'VE BEEN WORKING IN DIFFERENT CAPACITIES FOR OUR COMMUNITY.
I WAS THE PROGRAM DIRECTOR FOR THE CAROLINE COUNTY FAMILY YMCA FOR SEVERAL YEARS.
EVENTUALLY, I STARTED WORKING AS THE COMMUNITY OUTREACH COORDINATOR FOR THE TOWN OF GREENSBORO. I'M THE CEO AND FOUNDER, AND RIGHT NOW I'M THE PROGRAMS AND EVENTS MANAGER FOR THE CHESAPEAKE CULINARY CENTER.
BEFORE I MOVE TO CAROLINE COUNTY, I WAS LIVING IN MASSACHUSETTS, WHERE I HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO HAVE SEVERAL ROLES WORKING WITH CITY COUNCILS AND MAYORS OVER THERE.
I'M TRYING TO GIVE YOU THE SHORT STORY.
IF NOT, WE'RE GOING TO BE HERE ALL DAY. BUT I'M REALLY I'M REALLY HAPPY TO TO BE PART OF THE BOARD. THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT.
AND WE'RE HAPPY TO HAVE YOU, JIM.
MAYBE WE SHOULD. WE NOW HAVE A COMPLETE BOARD. MAYBE WE SHOULD INTRODUCE OURSELVES TO ANGEL. OKAY, OKAY. YOU WANT TO START? I'M MARGARET THOMPSON.
HI. SUZANNE CAMPOS, JIM BILBRO, DANA CALLAHAN.
NICE TO MEET YOU, ANGEL. WELCOME ABOARD.
AND ANGEL, I'M ALLISON MURPHY, THE DIRECTOR.
WALTER PALMER. NICE TO MEET YOU, SIR.
ALL RIGHT, LET'S GO INTO THE MINUTES.
IS THERE AN APPROVAL OF THE MINUTES OF APRIL 11TH? I HAVE A SUGGESTION IN THE MINUTES.
YES. IN PART C ON THE SECOND PAGE.
I HAVE I HAVE A SUGGESTION FOR THE FIRST SENTENCE RIGHT NOW.
IT SAYS MR. PALMER RECEIVED THIS COMPLAINT IMMEDIATELY FORWARDING TO MRS. MURPHY. HERE'S MY SUGGESTION.
OKAY. AFTER RECEIVING THE OPEN MEETINGS ACT COMPLAINT, MR. PALMER IMMEDIATELY FORWARDED IT TO MRS. MURPHY. OKAY. AND AND I DON'T KNOW.
DO WE NEED TO SAY MR. PALMER, BOARD ATTORNEY OR.
ON THE FIRST PAGE, I'D LIKE TO PUT VICE PRESIDENT.
OKAY. ANY OTHER CHANGES OR ADDITIONS? HEARING NONE. I'LL ENTERTAIN A MOTION TO ACCEPT THE MINUTES OF APRIL 11TH.
I MAKE A MOTION THAT WE ACCEPT THE MINUTES FROM APRIL 11TH.
MOTIONS MADE BY MARGARET THOMPSON.
IS THERE A SECOND? SECOND? SECOND BY MISS CAMPOS.
ALL IN FAVOR, SIGNIFY BY SAYING AYE.
[00:10:05]
VERY GOOD. ANY CHANGES TO THE AGENDA? IF WAS CHANGES ON THIS ELECTION DIRECTOR'S REPORT, DO YOU WANT THEM? IS THAT PART OF THE AGENDA? NO. OKAY. THERE ARE TWO CHANGES.BUT YOU DON'T WANT TO KNOW THEM.
SO DO YOU MEAN LIKE TYPOS OR YOUR.
YOU CAN JUST TELL ME AFTERWARDS.
THAT'S FINE. OKAY. THIS IS JUST FOR YOUR USE.
OKAY. SO I'LL GO AHEAD AND GO OVER THE DIRECTOR'S REPORT.
I'VE LISTED ALL OF THE MEETINGS THAT THE STAFF AND I HAVE ATTENDED SINCE OUR LAST MEETING. AND THEN VOTER REGISTRATION.
WE HAVE A COPY OF THE LAST VOTER REGISTRATION REPORT FROM OUR APRIL MEETING, AND THEN A CURRENT COPY DATED SIX NINE.
SO YOU CAN SEE THE COMPARISON OF VOTER REGISTRATION.
ELECTION JUDGES, WE HAVE SENT OUT A RECRUITMENT GOOGLE FORM TO CAPTURE THE INTEREST OF THE ELECTION JUDGES WHO WORKED DURING THE LAST ELECTION CYCLE TO FIND OUT IF THEY ARE STILL INTERESTED IN WORKING AND RETURNING TO WORK FOR THE 2026 ELECTIONS.
IT WAS SENT OUT ON JUNE 3RD, AND SO FAR WE HAVE ABOUT 50 REPLIES OUT OF PROBABLY 110 MAYBE. SO THAT'S PRETTY GOOD SO FAR.
OF THOSE 50, ONLY TWO JUDGES HAVE REPLIED THAT THEY'RE UNABLE TO RETURN, SO THAT'S REALLY GOOD.
I FEEL LIKE WE'RE GETTING INTO THE ASSIGNMENTS EARLY SO THAT WE CAN HAVE EVERYBODY HAVE EVERYONE IN PLACE EARLIER THAN RATHER THAN LATER.
SO ALSO WE SENT TO THEM A 2026 PRIMARY ELECTION NEWSLETTER, AND THAT INCLUDED INFORMATION WHICH YOU HAVE A COPY IN YOUR PACKET AND WE CAN DISCUSS IT WHEN WE GET TO IT. BUT ANYWAY, INFORMATION FOR THE JUDGES SO KIND OF KEEP THEM IN THE LOOP AS FAR AS ANY KIND OF CHANGES THAT OCCUR DURING THE LEGISLATIVE SESSION THAT MAY IMPACT THEM.
ALSO, WE'RE IN THE PROCESS OF REVIEWING AND UPDATING THE ELECTION JUDGES MANUAL FOR THE 2026 ELECTIONS. TAMMY AND I ARE PART OF A WORK GROUP.
THAT'S THROUGH MAYO, AND IT CONSISTS OF SEVERAL MEMBERS OF LOCAL BOARD OFFICES MAKING THOSE REVISIONS AND UPDATES.
ALSO WE DID I DIDN'T INCLUDE THIS IN THE REPORT BECAUSE IT CAME OUT AFTER THE REPORT WAS PREPARED, BUT WE ARE ABLE TO SHRED THE 2020 2020 ELECTION MATERIALS THAT WE'VE BEEN HOLDING. THERE'S A LAWSUIT THAT FINALLY WAS JUST WAS RESOLVED.
SO WE'RE ABLE TO FIND AND CLEAR OUT OUR WAREHOUSE BECAUSE WE WERE PRETTY MUCH RUNNING OUT OF SPACE STACKED TO THE CEILING IN THERE, SO THAT'LL BE GREAT. ALSO, AS YOU KNOW, DEBBIE BROHAWN IS LEAVING US ON JULY 31ST, AND THE POSITION TO FILL HER VACANCY WAS POSTED ON JUNE 17TH.
AND IT THE POSTING ENDS ON JULY 1ST.
AS FAR AS CANDIDATE FILING THERE IS A THERE IS A MISTAKE THAT'S HERE.
AND AS OF THE DATE OF THIS REPORT, WHICH WAS THE 20TH OF JUNE OR, I'M SORRY, THE 9TH OF JUNE, THAT IS CORRECT.
WE HAD FIVE CANDIDATES FILED, THE REPORT SAYS TWO.
I DIDN'T MAKE THE UPDATE FROM THE LAST TIME.
SO IT'S FIVE CANDIDATES THAT HAVE FILED.
AND THEN IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO VIEW A LISTING OF ALL OF THE CANDIDATES, THERE'S A LINK THAT YOU CAN GO ON TO THE STATE BOARD'S WEBSITE AND VIEW THOSE CANDIDATES. ALSO, I PROVIDED EACH OF YOU BECAUSE DURING THE LAST MEETING, I HAD DISCUSSED OUR THE LEGISLATIVE UPDATES, AND I DIDN'T HAVE THE 90 DAY REPORT, I DID MENTION THAT WE WOULD BE GETTING THAT TO YOU.
SO IT IS DISTRIBUTED AT THIS MEETING ONLY THE PORTION THAT PERTAINS TO ELECTIONS.
BUT AT THE LAST MEETING IN APRIL, I THINK I DISCUSSED THE LEGISLATION.
SO THAT'S JUST A REVIEW OF THAT.
SO THAT'S ALL I HAVE FOR MY REPORT ON THE BOARD OF ELECTIONS HANDOUT THAT YOU SENT US.
YES. HOW COME YOU DID NOT REGISTER OR LIST THE REGISTER OF WILLS? UNDER LOCAL OFFICES. YOU KNOW WHAT? PROBABLY JUST BY MISTAKE.
[00:15:02]
SO I CAN UPDATE THAT. I WAS WONDERING WHAT THE LAW ACTUALLY SAID WHEN THEY ELIMINATED THE INHERITANCE TAX. I DIDN'T KNOW IF THE OFFICE ITSELF WAS GOING TO BE ELIMINATED OR.OH, NO, IT'S ON THE IT WILL BE ON THE BALLOT.
THAT'S THE REASON I BROUGHT IT UP. WHERE WAS THAT AT? ON THE FIRST PAGE OF THE HANDOUT.
LOCAL OFFICES ON THE BALLOT INCLUDE.
OH, OKAY. YEAH. NO, THAT WAS JUST STRICTLY ME ACCIDENTALLY LEAVING IT OFF.
THERE'S A COMMA THERE. LIKE, MAYBE I GOT INTERRUPTED AND DIDN'T FINISH THAT. THANK YOU.
BOARD MEMBERS REPORT. NOTHING TO REPORT.
OKAY, WELL FROM WHAT I'VE PICKED UP AT THE CONVENTION AND WHATNOT, I THINK WE WERE ONE OF THE FIRST COUNTIES TO ADDRESS THE OPEN MEETINGS ACT COMPLAINTS.
A NUMBER OF COUNTIES HAVE GOTTEN THEM.
AND WHEN I WAS AT THE CONVENTION, THEY WERE JUST STARTING TO GET INTO THEM.
THE ATTORNEY FOR DORCHESTER COUNTY IS A FRIEND OF MINE, SO I SHARED MY THOUGHTS AND OUR EXPERIENCES WITH HER AFTERWARD.
SO I THINK KUDOS TO THE STAFF, BECAUSE I REALLY DO THINK THAT THAT WE GOT ON THIS QUICKLY AND IT SAVED US A LOT OF LEGAL TROUBLE DOWN THE LINE.
A VIRTUAL ATTORNEY MEETING OF THE ATTORNEYS IN THE 24 SUBDIVISIONS IN THE STATE.
I'VE FORGOTTEN THE DATE. IT'S IN JULY. IT'S ON A WEDNESDAY. I'M NOT SURE WHAT THAT.
I MEAN, THEY SAID WHAT IT CONCERNS, BUT I WASN'T ABLE TO FIGURE OUT WHAT THAT IS.
USUALLY THE TWO MONTHS BEFORE AN ELECTION, WHETHER IT BE A PRIMARY ELECTION OR A GENERAL ELECTION OR WHEN THEY HAVE THESE MEETINGS. SO THIS ONE'S KIND OF UNUSUALLY EARLY.
AND THE FINAL THING IS THAT IF YOU SEE ME DUCKING OUT AT 1030 TODAY THERE'S A FUNERAL I WANT TO ATTEND. SO IT'S NOBODY HAS TICKED ME OFF AT 1030.
BUT I WILL JUST KIND OF SNEAK AROUND THE BACK AND ON THE WAY OUT.
THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT. OLD BUSINESS.
ANYTHING LISTED HERE IS THE OPEN MEETINGS ACT COMPLAINT.
THE COMPLAINT ALLEGES THAT THE CAROLINE COUNTY BOARD OF ELECTIONS VIOLATED THE OPEN MEETINGS ACT BY NOT POSTING MEETING AGENDAS AND MINUTES ON THE BOARD'S OFFICIAL WEBSITE.
BASED ON THE REASONS PROVIDED IN THE OFFICIAL OPINION DATED MAY 12TH, 2025, THE OPEN MEETINGS ACT COMPLIANCE BOARD FOUND THAT CAROLINE COUNTY BOARD OF ELECTIONS WAS NOT IN VIOLATION OF THE ACT, AND WE HAVE SOMETHING FOR THE BOARD MEMBERS TO SIGN BEFORE YOU ALL LEAVE.
SO YES, WE CAN SIGN THAT AT THE END OF THE MEETING.
I'LL PASS. YOU CAN SIGN IT ON YOUR WAY OUT.
IT'S THE ACTUAL DOCUMENTATION SAYING THAT WE'RE NOT WE WERE NOT VIOLATING THE ACT.
GOOD. SO I'LL JUST HAVE YOU SIGN THAT. YES.
ALL RIGHT. THE NEXT THING UNDER OLD BUSINESS, THE ANNUAL MAYO SB BIANNUAL CONFERENCE.
I HAVE NO DOCUMENTS WITH THIS DISCUSSION.
DOES ANYONE WANT TO SHARE ANYTHING ABOUT THE CONFERENCE? IT WAS COLD. IT WAS, IT WAS.
IT WAS VERY COLD. I ONLY STAYED TWO DAYS AND I ACTUALLY RODE HOME WITH THE HEAT ON IN MY TRUCK ALL THE WAY HOME FROM OCEAN CITY, SO.
IT WAS GOOD. IT WAS OF COURSE, IT'S ALWAYS A GREAT TIME TO BE ABLE TO NETWORK. SO DURING THE TIME WE'RE ABLE TO HAVE SESSIONS THAT INCLUDE LEGISLATIVE UPDATES ANY KIND OF PROCEDURE CHANGES AS WELL AS SOME BEST PRACTICES.
SO THAT'S WHEN THE THIS TIME WAS ESPECIALLY HELPFUL BECAUSE THEY GROUPED THE SIZE COUNTIES TOGETHER. SO LIKE SMALL COUNTIES WERE GROUPED TOGETHER, MEDIUM COUNTIES WERE GROUPED TOGETHER IN LARGE COUNTIES.
WE WERE ABLE TO SHARE SOME OF OUR BEST PRACTICES SOME DOCUMENTATION THAT WE USE FOR
[00:20:01]
TRAINING OR FOR JUST ELECTION PREPARATION IN GENERAL.SO THAT WAS ALWAYS THAT'S HELPFUL.
AND WE DID HAVE SOME TAKEAWAYS THAT WE'LL BE ABLE TO USE HERE.
BUT OVERALL I FELT LIKE IT WAS A BENEFICIAL CONFERENCE.
YES. YEAH, I WAS THERE FOR MOST OF IT ACTUALLY.
I WAS THERE FOR UNTIL THROUGH THURSDAY WITH FRIDAY WAS THE END.
YES. AND YOU KNOW, I IT WAS FINE, YOU KNOW, PICK UP LITTLE TIDBITS OF THINGS.
THEY HAD A SPEAKER THIS TIME THAT I FORGOT WHAT HIS NAME IS.
BUT ANYWAY, HE, HE SPOKE BASICALLY, HIS POINT WAS YOUR CHOICES HAVE CONSEQUENCES.
SO REMEMBER THAT YOUR CHOICES HAVE CONSEQUENCES.
BUT IT WAS GOOD. ALL RIGHT UNDER A NEW BUSINESS.
ETHICS TRAINING FOR BOARD MEMBERS WILL TAKE PLACE AT OUR NEXT MONTHLY MEETING JULY 11TH.
SO SOMEONE WILL COME HERE JULY 11TH AT 1030.
AND WE'LL GO INTO CLOSED SESSION, AND THEN THEY WILL PROVIDE YOU WITH THAT ETHICS TRAINING DURING THAT TIME.
AND IT WILL LAST ABOUT AN HOUR.
SO YES, YES, I DID IT ONLINE AND IT WAS ABOUT 50 MINUTES.
AND THE PERSON WAS, YOU KNOW, WAS INTERESTING.
SHE WENT THROUGH SOME THE SIX BIG CONFLICTS OF INTEREST AND GAVE SOME SCENARIOS OF THINGS THAT COULD HAPPEN, BUT IT WAS INFORMATIVE.
NICE. DID IT ANSWER ANY OF YOUR QUESTIONS? I DIDN'T HAVE ANY. OKAY.
HOW MANY QUESTIONS? BECAUSE BASICALLY, WHEN YOU KNOW, WHEN YOU DO FILL OUT THAT ETHICS THING THAT YOU HAVE TO DO ONLINE, IT'S PRETTY, PRETTY CLEAR EVERYTHING.
BUT, YOU KNOW, SHE WENT IN, SHE SAID, BASICALLY, SOMETIMES PEOPLE DON'T REALIZE THAT THEY'VE DONE THAT.
IT'S NOT THAT THEY WERE DOING IT AND KNEW WHAT THEY WERE DOING, BUT SOMETIMES THEY THEY DON'T REALLY KNOW THAT THEY'VE DONE SOMETHING.
SO SHE SAID JUST, YOU KNOW, KEEP, KEEP TRACK.
AND SHE SAID THEY ARE VERY HELPFUL.
SHE SHE'LL GIVE YOU A PHONE NUMBER WHERE YOU CAN REACH OUT FOR HELP.
SHE'S THE STATE ETHICS COMMISSION AND ITS STAFF, SHE SAID, ARE THERE TO HELP. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, YOU KNOW, IF YOU SOMETIMES IF YOU'RE NOT SURE ABOUT SOMETHING SHE SAID, JUST CALL AND THEY'LL LET YOU KNOW.
BUT IT WAS OKAY. IT WAS A PAINLESS 15 MINUTES.
OH, ALREADY? OKAY. ANY COMMENTS FROM YOU? I HAVE NO COMMENTS. IT WAS PRETTY CUT AND DRY.
IT WAS? YES. OKAY. 26 ELECTION CALENDAR. ALLISON, ARE YOU GOING TO? YEAH. SO I HAVE PROVIDED A COPY OF THE 2026 ELECTION CALENDAR PROVIDED BY THE STATE BOARD OF ELECTIONS. AND SO IT LISTS ALL OF THE UPCOMING DATES AND DEADLINES RELATING TO THE ELECTION. AND THEN SITES, ALL OF THE LEGAL AUTHORITY THAT RELATES TO EACH ITEM. THIS IS ALSO ON THE STATE BOARD OF ELECTIONS WEBSITE.
SO I USE THIS CALENDAR FOR PLANNING ALL OF OUR DATES AND DEADLINES AND, AND THINGS LIKE THAT. TASKS IN THE OFFICE.
THERE ARE THINGS ON THAT LIST THAT WE ARE TO DO OKAY, AS WELL AS OTHER ITEMS LISTED THAT NEED TO TAKE PLACE.
AND SO ALSO, I DIDN'T YOU BOARD MEMBERS ALREADY HAVE THIS, BUT THE ELECTION CALENDAR THAT I PROVIDE TO YOU, WHICH I DID GIVE TO YOU, ANGEL, IN YOUR WELCOME PACKET, IT'S A COLORED CALENDAR.
SO I WILL PULL. THERE YOU GO, MARGARET.
I WILL PULL ITEMS THAT SPECIFICALLY APPLY TO THE BOARD MEMBERS AND ADD THOSE ONTO THAT CALENDAR, AND I HIGHLIGHT THEM IN A COLOR SO THAT, YOU KNOW, AND OF COURSE, DURING THE THE MEETINGS, WE'LL GIVE ADVANCE NOTICE OF, HEY, YOU HAVE THESE THINGS COMING UP THAT YOU'LL NEED TO BE AVAILABLE TO DO.
SO THAT'S JUST HOW YOU'LL KNOW WHAT THINGS APPLY TO YOU IS, IS NOT REALLY FROM THIS CALENDAR, BUT FROM THE OTHER CALENDAR THAT'S HIGHLIGHTED. OKAY. THANK YOU.
AND AS WE GET CLOSER TO THE 2026 ELECTION, I WILL GIVE OUT A CALENDAR FOR THE YEAR 2026
[00:25:01]
THAT HAS ALL OF THOSE ITEMS IN IT.OKAY. THE 26 PRIMARY ELECTION NEWSLETTER.
OKAY. SO I YOU'VE POINTED OUT ONE MISTAKE.
WAS THERE ANOTHER? IS THAT THE ONLY ONE? WHAT'S THAT? THAT I LEFT OFF REGISTER WILLS, WAS THERE ANYTHING? OH, OKAY. SO THIS WAS SENT AGAIN TO THIS IS JUST A NEWSLETTER SENT TO OUR JUDGES, AND JUST GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT UPCOMING, THE UPCOMING CALENDAR AND THE OFFICES. I WAS TRYING TO FILL SPACE IN THAT TOP SECTION.
SO THAT'S WHY I PUT WHAT WOULD BE ON THE BALLOT.
IT'S SENT ALONG WITH THE RECRUITMENT EFFORTS SO THAT WE CAN JUST KEEP PEOPLE IN THE LOOP.
LET THEM KNOW ABOUT THE ELECTION JUDGE TRAINING, PAY THE DATE OF THE ELECTION, AND THE NEW REQUIREMENTS ABOUT THE PARTY AFFILIATION THAT WE HAVE TO HAVE EQUAL REPRESENTATION IN EACH POLLING PLACE AS IT RELATES TO THE TWO THE MINORITY AND MAJOR POLITICAL PARTIES.
SO WE DID HAVE SOME UNAFFILIATED JUDGES, AS YOU KNOW.
SO WE WE DID NOTIFY THEM THAT WE WOULD BE FILLING ALL OF OUR ELECTION JUDGE VACANCIES, FIRST AND FOREMOST WITH THE REPUBLICAN AND DEMOCRATIC PARTY AFFILIATED JUDGES.
AND THEN WE WOULD BE ABLE TO FILL IN ONCE WE HAD EQUAL REPRESENTATION FROM THOSE TWO PARTIES. WE COULD FILL IN WITH UNAFFILIATED IF, IF NEED BE. SO WE JUST WANTED TO MAKE THOSE JUDGES AWARE THAT WAS GOING TO OCCUR THIS TIME. DO YOU THINK THAT THEY WILL IF THEY'RE NOT THE CHIEF JUDGE YOU THINK THEY'LL STAY ON? OH, THAT WAS THE QUESTION.
SO I DID ASK THAT. AND YES MOST JUDGES WERE STILL INTERESTED IN WORKING, EVEN THOUGH THEY WOULDN'T BE PLACED FIRST.
THAT IS GOOD BECAUSE WE WOULD BE LOSING SOME GOOD PEOPLE.
THAT'S TRUE. YES. AND I WANTED TO GET THAT OUT NOW.
RIGHT. BECAUSE I DIDN'T WANT THEM TO BE QUESTIONING.
WHY HAVEN'T I BEEN PUT IN OR WHY, YOU KNOW, CONTACTED.
SO I DID WANT TO MAKE THEM AWARE THAT, YOU KNOW, THAT WAS THE CASE. YEAH.
WHILE YOU'RE DOING CORRECTIONS, GENERALLY, ANOTHER LOCAL POSITION IS JUDGES OF THE ORPHANS COURT. KIND OF HAND IN HAND.
IT IS. THANKS. WHAT? DO YOU THINK, JOE? SHE DIDN'T THANK ME.
ALL RIGHT. IS THERE ANY OTHER COMMENTS OR QUESTIONS THAT THE BOARD MEMBERS HAVE? HEARING NONE. LET'S SCHEDULE THE NEXT MEETING FOR JULY 11TH AT 930.
IS THAT OKAY WITH EVERYBODY? YEAH. I WON'T BE HERE FOR THAT MEETING.
I'LL BE IN COLORADO. VERY NICE.
HE'S UP IN THE MOUNTAINS. BUT YOU'VE ALREADY TAKEN THE ETHICS.
THE ETHICS YOU HAVE TO YES, BUT YOU DON'T HAVE TO STAY AFTER THAT MEETING FOR THAT UNLESS YOU REALLY WANT TO.
I'M GOOD. THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT.
