Apparently SFWA candidate voting ends soon and just in case the information in this thread isn't enough to get you to vote for the OTHER write-in-candidate (Monica Valentinelli), I will point out stuff Lou has said recently. Like the past 2 weeks. https://twitter.com/tinytempest/status/1239948721783177216
From Lou's blog "The Party Line" March 29:

"[Tempest] Bradford is Joe Goebbels to Nora Jemisin, who's basically turned the SFWA into her own self-promotion racket..."

Do I need to explain to you how f-ed up this entire framing is? Cuz I can....
From that same post:

"[Teresa] Neilsen-Hayden repeated the lie that I swatted David Gerrold in 2015. Truth is, she invented that lie. Calling the police for protection because you are afraid of a lynch mob is not swatting, it's self-defense."

Lou keeps changing his story...
At the time it happened and he was exposed, he apologized and lots of people were like: he apologized and thus that's the end of the story....

Uh huh

Also, just in the space of the conversation sparked by his write-in candidacy he's changed his story on this...
...sometimes saying he apologized and sometimes the other end of the extreme: it was all a lie made up by conspirators.

Speaking of conspiracies...
In his April 5 post Lou lays the groundwork for what he's gonna shout from the rooftops once he loses:

"[SFWA is] a registered non-profit group in California, so at some point they'll stumble and violate some laws. It's inevitable..."

O RLY?
"For example, is it legal for such a group to elect officers and not disclose the results? They didn't last year, and I would suppose they won't again this year, just to prevent showing I received any votes."

Say again?

**** just to prevent showing I received any votes****
It's nice when they give you a glimpse into the future, isn't it?

Anyway, if you're in SFWA please join the vast, global conspiracy against Lou Antonelli by writing in Monica Valentinelli for Director-at-Large.
