Name: Carol Beecher: It is, it is not an onerous request from the division to simply contact us and confirm, and that is what we have asked them to do. We don't require paperwork, we're not requiring documentation, nothing like that. And if they call us and say they are a registered voter because I do know we're within that 30 days prior to an election for registration purposes, then we go back to their previous filing as the date so that for sure they are registered and will be on the registrar.

I don't see that we have the option to not move them to somewhere. It is, it is not an onerous request from the division to simply contact us and confirm, and that is what we have asked them to do. We don't require paperwork, we're not requiring documentation, nothing like that. And if they call us and say they are a registered voter because I do know we're within that 30 days prior to an election for registration purposes, then we go back to their previous filing as the date so that for sure they are registered and will be on the registrar. Follow-up with that.
