I haven't seen that done formally since I've been a member of the FTSC.

Unfortunately, for years now the RCs have for the most part supported all 
candidates that were nominated.  More often than not, expiring members end up 
being nominated again, just because they have been willing to serve in the 
past.  Candidates are nominated in some cases for no reason other than to 
ensure that group  is represented.
