ARTICLE VII-VOTING SECTION 2

I WENT TO OTIS LIBRARY IN NORWICH , CONNECTICUT TO DO THIS RESEARCH ON THE MOHEGAN CONSTITUTION.

ARTICLE VII- VOTING SECTION 2 IN EACH TRIBAL ELECTION, EVERY REGISTERED VOTING MEMBER SHALL BE ENTITLED TO CAST ONE VOTE FOR EACH ELECTIVE POSITION AVAILABLE.

THE WORDS WE NEED MEANINGS FOR ARE 1) SHALL 2) BE 3) ENTITLED.

BLACK'S LAW DICTIONARY DELUXE SEVENTH EDITION, BRYAN A. GARNER, EDITOR IN CHIEF, COPYWRIGHT 1999

SHALL, OB, 1. HAS A DUTY TO; MORE BROADLY, IS REQUIRED TO

2. SHOULD (AS OFTEN INTERPRETED BY COURTS)

3. MAY

4. WILL (AS A FUTURE-TENSE VERB)

5. IS ENTITLED TO . ONLY SENSE 1. IS ACCEPTABLE UNDER STRICT STANDARDS OF DRAFTING

ENTITLE, OB 1.TO GRANT A LEGAL RIGHT TO GUALIFY FOR,
2. ECCLES LAW. TO OBTAIN AS A MINISTER.--FORMERLY ALSO SPELLED INTITLE

INTITLE, OB. ARCHAW SEE ENTITLE

WEBSTERS NEW WORLD POCKET DICTIONARY FOURTH EDITION

REQUIRE V. 1. TO DEMAND 2. TO NEED REQUIREMENT. N

THE CONSTITUTION MAY BE OKAY THE WAY IT IS. HOWEVER I THINK EITHER IT NEEDS TO BE MORE PRECISE OR IT NEEDS TO BE CHALLENGED IN COURT.

READERS I CAN NOT FIGURE IT OUT. PLEASE E-MAIL YOUR THOUGHTS ON WHAT YOU THINK IT MEANS.

EDITORIAL NOTES: PLEASE CHECK OUT PREVIOUS ARTICLES ON "THE ELECTION LAW NEEDS TO BE CHANGED." '

The Ordinance needs to be changed..not the Constitution. The Ordinance is unconstitutional.

P.S. Please learn to spell things correctly and proof read your postings. It will make them more credible.
