USCF EXECUTIVE BOARD ELECTION
by Bill Goichberg
Please vote in this crucial election for four members of the seven person USCF
Executive Board. Ballots are in the June issue of Chess Life and the
TLA Newsletter, and any member age 16 or over, who was also a member on April
30, may vote. Members who do not receive a ballot may request one from the
USCF office.
The Executive
Board currently includes a member who has sued USCF, the organization she has a
fiduciary duty to support and protect, for $25 million (later reduced to $10
million), a lawsuit I believe is totally without merit. Her husband,
who has refused to deny under oath charges that he made many anonymous and
defamatory internet posts, is also on the Board. If two candidates are
elected who support or tolerate the outrageous conduct of these two, I believe
that the Federation will be in great peril. See
www.uschess.org/legalupdates
for details regarding numerous legal problems that USCF now faces.
See
www.checkmate.us for my detailed
commentary on the election. I am a candidate for re-election to the Board,
but am not eligible to continue as President due to a term limit. The
Board elects the President, so with the support of just two more Board members
out of the four to be elected, the next President of USCF could actually be
someone who has an active lawsuit against the Federation which, if successful,
would bankrupt the organization! Don't let this
happen! Please vote for BILL GOICHBERG, JIM BERRY, RUTH
HARING, AND MIKE ATKINS.
