How do we get a hunter appointed to the game commission to find the true store behind another botched permit drawing and the new allocation of tags

If you're biggest concern with the Commission is hunting tags, then you haven't been paying attention.

The Commission appointment process is a fickle beast, you have to juggle multiple metrics/variables at a time, such as
- whos rolling off and when
- weighing the good or the perfect
-qualifications
-ability to pass a smell test with the governor's office
-connected enough to have some sway
-where they are located (county and region) vs. whats available
-endorsements
-individual capacity to do a ton of work for each candidate

Plus you never know...someone might step down or be removed before their term is up...and you have no idea when that'll happen, so you need a constant and very well distributed list of solid candidates.

We have spoiled food in the fridge and you're looking for it in the bathroom just because that is where smell usually comes from.

The commission is completely removed from the permit draws, except that they approve the draws to happen. The screwup for this is on the game dept senior management and their lack of oversight in their critical software. They paid a SW firm to do a thing and didnt pay for a 2nd party to do QC.

I generally support the leaning up of govt spending, but this kind of thing is a downside that comes with it. I hope they get some of the money back for the contract.
