Unfortunately, one solution cannot fit all situations. If a committe is stacked and biased to favour the interests of one or a few individuals (which comes about through multiple ownership by one person in a large strata scheme and low turnout by absentee owners), then vexacious may simply mean representing a different point of view.
I couldn’t agree more. I just took the phrase “does nothing in way shape or form; she goes out of her way to be difficult and to block or derail any attempts to get things done around the block” at face value.
I have seen the same “vote for our ticket” system used to exclude people from ECs who might have had a contribution to make. Hell, it’s been used to keep me off my building’s EC, albeit with the help of a bumper crop in the proxy harvest.
But remove great swathes of proxies from the picture (as will happen next year) and a little bit of political planning can go a long way to get rid of bad apples. And don’t forget, the good guys are able to mount their own campaigns, with their own tickets, if they want.
