<br />551 <br /> <br />MR. STAPLETON: <br />GOVERNOR JOHNSON: <br />MR.WHITTEN: <br />MR. STAPLETON: <br /> <br />"No, I am not." <br /> <br />"Are there any other nominations?" <br /> <br />"I move that the nominations be closed." <br /> <br />"Second the motion." <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />Upon vote, the motion carried unanimously. <br /> <br />GOVERNOR JOHNSON: "The motion is carried.
