<p><em>Andrew Brewtbart is a Boca Raton-based author, coffee pundit, and &#8220;leading voice of the Conservative Coffee Movement.&#8221; Writing here exclusively for Sprudge, Mr. Brewtbart has toned down his trademark liberal-bating, instead proudly bringing you a message of impending electoral opportunity for registered BGA members.</em></p>
<p>My Friends,</p>
<p>There is no season that stirs the marrow in my bones like election season. Gingrich? Romney? The villainous Ron Paul? I&#8217;m not referring to Presidential caucuses &#8211; kooky blasts of ca-ca, best left in the Caucusus &#8211; nor the Republican primaries &#8211; secondary at best &#8211; but rather, the pressing electoral decision of our time and age, presented before us on this very day. That&#8217;s right, America &#8211; it&#8217;s the BGA Leadership Elections, and they are now upon us.</p>
<p>The spoils: two (2) Executive Council positions, plus new chapter reps for the Northwestern, Western, Mountain, South Central, and Southeast regions. 9 candidates offering their service for the EC; a heated pool of willful entrants vying to represent the Northwest.<a href="http://baristaguildofamerica.blogspot.com/2012/02/2012-elections-vote-today.html"> You can read the full candidates list by clicking here,</a> and you can check out some more information on the voting process and what these positions mean by <a href="http://baristaguildofamerica.blogspot.com/2011/12/its-election-time.html">reading this pamphlet</a> by Scott Lucey. Your official ballot <a href="https://specialtycoffee.wufoo.com/forms/2012-bga-officer-elections-official-ballot/">is available here</a>, but remember! Only active BGA members may vote in this election. No foreign nationals, no former members whose dues have been <em>in lieu</em> since the victory of Mike Phillips, just the current and bona fide electorate.</p>
<p>Voting has now begun, and will run until February 17th. As the Kennedys used to say, &#8220;vote early and vote often.&#8221;</p>
<p>Happy voting, friends. While I shall endorse no candidates, I do have these words for you consider when going forth into the digital voting booth: When you exercise democracy, you exercise freedom; and when you exercise freedom, you exercise courage; and when you get this much exercise, I feel well-within my inalienable rights to take a day off at the gym. God bless America! In Brewtbart we trust.</p>
<p>-A.B.</p>
