The following is a message from Duchess Avelina Keyes, with regard to the recent changes to the way that polls are sent out to members of the East Kingdom Polling Orders.
Hey folks,
A few notes on the polling process. Here in the East, the polling job is split between two people, Duchess Katherine Stanhope and me.
