Actually, active brothers need to be present for some part of the closed
meeting DSK nominations discussion in order to vote on DSKs.

I will be attending this chapter meeting to go over what DSKs are and how
the voting works, in case there are any questions, since Ellen cannot
attend.

Yilfs,
Lori
