I mean, who knows what the reason is because, number one, we don't know who voted no, and it would be nice if the folks who did would identify themselves and explain their reasoning.

I'd love to know.

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show

Surely there's a reason why you didn't put him on the list.

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show

Why did you put Kraft, Greenwood, and Anderson, or Anderson, Craig, and Kraft, or whoever, whoever?
