Thank you for the kind nominations. I thought very seriously about accepting, but I’ve ultimately decided against it for a few reasons. First, I plan to bring forward a number of legislative proposals in the coming months, including an overhaul of the Elections Act on which Griffindor and I are working. The neutrality and independence that I believe is required of the Chair seems inconsistent with advancing a fulsome legislative agenda. Second, I already have several other in-progress NS projects that I plan to take back up now that my RL obligations have let up a bit. Finally, and most importantly, I have immense confidence in BlockBuster and look forward to supporting their candidacy.
