I just wanted to say that the work by 1CC has been great. I know some of the people involved, some better than others and some who have become involved at different stages. I think that they have put an enormous amount of work in and tried to keep it as non-partisan as possible. They should definitely be commended!

Personally, I would've liked to have seen them set this up so that a decision was made say 2 weeks ago, and tried to encourage the other progressives to drop out. I understand why they didn't go this route, but that would've been my hope.

I think its a great initiative, even though I think that the result will be them endorsing Turner, and I think that is the wrong decision based solely on who can most likely win.
