To get a new president we need to have an AGM, which we haven't had for some
years. Such a meeting needs to have advance notice of at least a month. So
we could plan an AGM for September, formally announce it within a week, and
then accept your nomination.
Some things to note, firstly it's convention that someone's first committee
position isn't as president. So while it's not impossible it will be an
uphill battle if someone else contends for the position. The next thing is
that it's not required that someone be president to read the president email,
being on the committee is required for such things but ordinary committee
members can be appointed by general agreement without an election.

Presumably covid-19 was partially responsible for no elections;
could we be reminded who the current office holders in LUV are ?
My experience with organisations has been that committees finish up
doing all the work;
and spend the rest of the time trying to get members to be more active.
Then when they get completely burned-out they get replaced by another group;
who repeat the pattern, much to the bewilderment of the older group.
