The Hobby: APIC Elections & The Future

Hobby posts are where we discuss the hobby of political collecting, organizational issues within the OR-APIC or National APIC, or just generalized discussions that might be important to the members or potential members of the American Political Item Collectors non-profit. 

2020 is not just an election year from America, but it is an election year for the APIC, the parent organization of the Oregon APIC (we are a geographic chapter). In the May edition of the Bandwagon (a publication sent out monthly), APIC members that are currently paid up on their dues ($42.00 a year) will get a ballot. By and large, these elections are a sleepy affair. Rarely is a race contested seriously. The positions seem even less desirable than running for your local cemetery board. Why is that you might ask?
