No, it had a liberal interpretation. The point that is made is that if we are going to force the seven day window between TA of an LOA and ratification, then we should abide by all of the guidelines in the policy manual. Ala can't have it both ways. That said, this was the decision of the reps, and as we can see, they decided for the election. We should expect see strict interpretation of the policy manual on items like the seven day clock going forward.
