John,

Thank you for the interesting stats, also thanks to Gary for asking the 
enlightening question.  I assume this is using the "plurality" standard 
of the current language of 2013-6.  However, there have been a number of 
concerns raised regarding the "plurality" standard, including comments 
in the staff and legal review.

So, would a "20% minimum" standard be equally effective for the cases 
outlined above?  For simplicity let's assume, assume "20% minimum", is 
substituted for "plurality", as the only change.

Thanks
