I believe that in person speeches are useful and give the community a chance to get to know the candidates. Everyone who is willing to run for election should be told the rules. in the whole history of ARIN this issue has appeared in one election and I feel that if the candidates are told the rules there will be no further problems. <div>

<br>I think that for the integrity of the ARIN election process to remain intact, ARIN either needs to remove candidate speeches and stick to written materials, or have the speeches given in premade form like a video or something on the ARIN website.</div>
