I would say getter done! We have an election, so lets get that sorted out. December can be a busy month for people and it is also a time to take advantage of the season. If I were elected Megas my plan was to get a term done well before or up to Christmas if there has to be time extensions because of RL issues with the season.
That way another term could start around the end of the month for someone else over a possible Christmas break. People will either be busy and away or sitting around. There is some opportunity to pick some momentum up this month.
If we wait any later I think we will be at a disadvantage to get the game going. As always we can plan for the person who will be away for a length of time.
