I can't say I have heard the same so I assume you mean a vote for him to officiate at state? Those votes already happened at the district meeting unless there are additional spots that can be appointed.
If that is the case, I agree, he would be good to have for the state tournament. I know he's learned a lot of over the years and is always working to improve himself which from what I've seen and heard from the positive feedback (being a Paola fellow); it's working for him.
