Folks, we have an upset in the making. Those who doubt or disbelieve the founding stories lead 11-9! On a BYU board, and twenty votes cast! Naysayers, VOTE!!!!!!! This would be a shocker.

It is quite unseemly for prophetic leaders, even those of the apostate persuasion, to beg for votes.

You count like Hillary.

It's 10 to 10, as I read it.

Believing metaphorically is counted as a no vote.
