GRR: Rugby Ohio
Rigby Ohio's new elections are completed and the results aren't decisive one way or the other.
For the agents of change who wanted to see a new Board, the election did not deliver a landslide.
For the incumbent group of Boardmembers, the election did not deliver a vote of confident.
As GRR reported on Monday, there was serious dissatisfaction in how the new Rugby Ohio election was being managed.

Today is supposed to be the first day of voting for the new Rugby Ohio Board, but there is trouble in paradise as the balloting and nomination procedure has been brought into question.
“We’re not happy,” said Mark Weidner, who heads up the group that wanted open elections.
Here’s what they are not happy about:
An agreement has been reached with the existing Rugby Ohio Board of Directors and USA Youth & High School to open elections for the Board and start a process to change the by-laws to be in compliance with World Rugby’s Regulation 6e.
The shift on how Rugby Ohio is organized is moving far too slowly for the likes of those calling for change.
Rugby Ohio is currently under a mandate to establish free and open elections to its Board of Directors because that’s a World Rugby rule. USA Youth & High School has insisted that Rugby Ohio hold elections as soon as possible.
