Hopefully those elected will represent all fencers for the better of the athlete and sport and not for nationalistic reasons.

Elections to a powerless position. What's to be upset about? It's not as if they or anyone else can impede the Roche steamroller at this point....

What I dont get is why there are 6 reps from britain.... what is that about????? "I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. And from this side only! The flight of a half-man, half-bird. Dinosaurs nuzzling their young in pastures where strip malls should be. Cookies on dowels. All those moment, lost in time. Gone, like eggs off a hooker's stomach. Time to die" -Phil Ken Sebben

These aren't the reps, AFAIK, these are the candidates. No one else candidated. We'll see who gets elected next. - Epee is the Louis Vuitton bag of fencing: only the best can get it, and the rest of the masses must content themselves with cheap knockoffs (sabre, foil)

How are these candidates chosen? If you are trying to 'grow' the brand of fencing in other countries, it seems ridiculous to have 2 countries represented so heavily while others are ignored completely. "Since when does being a patriot in America mean shutting your mouth?"

One suspects that they are chosen according to how closely they support M. Roch's positions.
I am prepared to have this cynical assumption dispelled, but am not really expecting it.
