BREAKING: LD 29 Chair Linda Migliore has moved out of her precinct and per LD/County Bylaws and Statute is no longer the LD Chair YET SHE IS PRETENDING TO BE and continues to email Precinct Committeemen. An Immediate Election must be held. This move was admitted by her proxy carrier and others at the MCRC EGC meeting tonight, who subsequently voted her proxy was invalid. Additional evidence including photos is available. See the below message from PCs within LD29:
 
LD29 Board Members,
 
Per LD29 bylaws, Article III, Section 1, it states: “Membership of the district shall consist of all duly elected and appointed precinct committeemen, in accordance with A.R.S. 16-821, 16-822 and 16-823.
 
ARS 16-822 reads as follows:
 
https://www.azleg.gov/viewdocument/?docName=https://www.azleg.gov/ars/16/00822.htm
16-822. Precinct committeemen; eligibility; vacancy; duties; term
 
A. Any member of a recognized political party who is a registered voter in the precinct is eligible to seek the office of precinct committeeman of that party in that precinct.
 
D. In addition to other provisions of law regarding removal from office, a vacancy shall exist in the office of precinct committeeman when the precinct committeeman moves from the precinct from which elected or changes political party from the party in which the precinct committeeman was elected.
 
LD29’s former Chairwoman, Linda Migliore has moved from
 
former address
Rio Paseo Precinct
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Goodyear, AZ 85395
 
to current address
Wigwam Precinct
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Litchfield Park, AZ 85340
 
As a result of moving out of the precinct in which she was elected Precinct Committeeman, Linda Migliore is no longer a Precinct Committeeman per 16-822 D, as highlighted.
 
Since Linda Migliore is no longer a precinct committeeman, she does not meet the bylaw definition of a member of this district, per LD29 bylaws, Article III, Section 1, and therefore, LD29 has a vacancy both in the Rio Paseo Precinct and in the position of the LD29 Chairman.  Our LD does not currently have a chair.
 
Per LD29 bylaws Article IV, Section D “Vacancies”,
“In case of a vacancy the office of District Chairman, …., the PCs within the district SHALL MEET AND ELECT BY VOTE of the majority present, in person or by proxy, a successor who is elected or appointed PC with current voting privileges to hold office for the remainder of the current term.’
 
Based on the facts above, I and the LD29 body call upon the 1st Vice Chair, as acting chair, to issue a call letter, pursuant to LD29 bylaws Article IV, Section D, 14 days or more in advance of our Tuesday, January 16th 2024 meeting, so the members of the LD29 body may take immediate action on replacement of the chair.
 
There is also a vacancy for the second vice chair.
 
The call for election must be both for Chair and 2nd Vice Chair.
 
Given the timeliness of this matter, please respond in a Reply All to this email on / or before 3:00 pm, Tuesday, January 2, 2024.
 
Thank you,
