that are longer than 75 words will be edited down by the elections
committee. Summary statements should be continuous text: bullet
lists etc. will be converted to continuous text. For candidates who
do not submit a summary statement, the elections committee will use
a snippet from their full candidacy statement instead. If we do not
receive a sufficient number of these summary statements, the
elections committee reserves the right to post these summaries
elsewhere.</P>
