13. Just FYI, if your county chair is not calling regular meetings,
there is a provision in the rules that allow for you to call a meeting by signature, in other words, I think 3/4 of the precinct chairs can sign a petition calling for a meeting, and then they get to have a meeting. This was used in Dallas County about 4 years ago to do an end-run around the current chair, who was basically shouted out of office at said meeting. So, it is possible to get rid of a county chair if you need to do so, but it's kind of -- um -- a contentious process. To say the least.
