Looks like candidates R.P. and J.A. sent an Council 77 campaign e-mail. In general, a very nice e-mail. But I cannot leave out the hypocritical nature of some of the statements. The current Sec/Tres R.P. which is running for captain rep stated, and I quote...
"Every voice is important to us. Every pilot has the right to be heard and listened to which is why Jxxxx and I pledge to each of you, we will work everyday on behalf of ALL council 77 pilots and that we will make sure every voice is heard."
And further:
"We pledge that by working together to build unity, by embracing transparency and maintaining a respectful dialogue based on mutual respect--we can accomplish great things not only for Council 77, but also the entire pilot group. We do not see ourselves as DFW pilots, we do not see ourselves as LAS pilots--we see ourselves as Spirit Pilots!"

REALLY??? So...why won't he, as the Secretary/Treasurer and the person whose duties are to organize and coordinate meetings, not hold a meeting in DFW, specifically allowed by the bylaws, for DFW pilots to EXERCISE THEIR VOTING RIGHTS??? Oh, right, he's running in for the open position in his home base!!!
Well....go ahead and prove your commitment to unity and schedule a meeting in DFW for those in that are left out and disenfranchised from the process. As a current 77 rep recently stated on an e-mail to one of our pilots, exact quote: "anyone who wishes to run for the open position or vote simply needs to make it happen."
Really? Needs to make it happen? Very unifying huh??
