My point was that Don's claim is simple semantics. Call his choices
whatever you wish, none of them are part of the "other slate."

Don is free to do as he wishes, of course, but he endorses none of the three
current Board members with whom he serves. Personally, if re-elected I
doubt I would oppose current Board members who are running for re-election
absent some grave defect or deriliction of duty on their part. It doesn't
help the Board to work together in the remaining months before the election,
and if current Board members are re-elected, there will likely be at least
some lingering resentment.
