    HI Hans Peter,<br>
    <br>
    Thanks so much for that info. I am glad the complaints about connect
    are being heard. I do not go to connect, I have subscribed to the
    groups and get the emails but since I did not know about the need to
    subscribe to the board of elections group I did not. If you could
    put a link from the candidates page to the Connect page that would
    be great and also put in a note saying you need to join the group
    through the official invite in your inbox to see any of the Q&As
    that will be very helpful because with the link alone you can not
    see anything<br>
    <br>
    Best,<br>
    Judith<br>

        <div>What you CAN do right now is insert a link to the

        <div>IMO it is being proven again that Connect is functioning as
          a tool for exclusion so add that sin to the sin of not
