Ok, tell us one thing you regret you did not do as chair, one thing you believe was the highlite of your term, and one thing you would change. Thank you.

Reginald this was a question that Brad Watkins asked and something that I've been wondering myself.

Mr. Norman what were the events that caused the Ballotgate fiasco? It's been four months (five now)and no real explanation has ever been given as to how the SCDP ballot included the unauthorized addition of the "VOTE NO ON REFERENDUM" box.

Keith wasn't it true that when Obama came to memphis he didn't even come to the shelby county party for support. Don't you blame yourself for letting the party get so bad.

When did Obama come to Memphis? I thought his only interest was in Nashville.

No didn't Presidential Candidate Obama decide not to come to Memphis after his advisory team told him that the SCDP was in disarray and would be of little help? Keith you should know the answer to this.

Chairman,

If you could do it over would you change anything?

I want to thank anon 5:44 for reposting my earlier question. I have a follow up question as well.

Mr. Norman, At the SCDP executive committee meeting back in Sept. You proposed that the party urge voters to vote No on County Ordinance 365, which dealt with Term Limits for County Elected officials.
You then read a letter from a County Commissioner to the Executive Committee who urged the party to take this action. You later refused to name who this county commissioner was. Who was this person?, and why did you refuse to reveal their identity to the Executive Committee?, if said person was hoping to influence that body to action, they why do so anonymously?
Thank you, and I hope you'll answer my question.

Mr. Norman you missed a lot of meetings. Why did you take this position if you weren't able to give the time necessary to get the job done? If you had a good reason for your absences what were they?

Do you support Van Turner or Jay Bailey? What do you think of Desi? Is she a friend?

Dear Readers,

This Friday is the last day you will have to present questions to Chairman Keith Norman. After 5:00 P.M. on March 13th I will not allow any further questions to be asked.

This will give Keith the weekend to gather his thoughts and hopefully on Monday I will be able to post his response.

We all need to thank the Chairman for being so willing to take the time to answer our questions.

Since time is running out I'll throw a question in myself.

Keith, do you think there is some risk when pastors get involved in politics?

Brad Watkins said...

After the SCDP was made aware of the Ballotgate issue, you called a press conference to address these concerns, but did not show up to it. Why?

There were reports of bogus ballots being handed out at the polling locations all the way threw early voting and even on election day.
Why was this allowed to occur? Who was responsible for ensuring that the false ballots were collected and returned to the party??
