Fair enough. To accomplish this Kenta realized he needed to get someone not as close to the matter (ie. not married to Crimson) to discuss this. So I was called to answer.
There are those who don't know her well, and probably have heard the issues that you brought up. So let's talk about those for a few minutes. You said you have come here not to flame but to bring up concerns, so I'll answer those concerns.
For those that do know Crimson she has the confidence of Mourningwood Glen and many at King's Point for her work, and some have even joined Mourningwood Glen to have their records kept under Crimson's care.

She stated; "I have been the park pm of MWG both as pro-tem and officially since April of 2007" During this term, didn’t MWG almost lose their contract due to records tampering, false credit reporting and the locking out of the Kingdom PM from the MWG section of the ORK? They are still on probation for the above violations.
The probation was for three months time from the time of the 20th anniversary birthday bash, (that was decided in a monarchy meeting at that event), reduced from the six months that were originally announced. The probation is served and complete. In that meeting it was realized that communication between the park and kingdom had been lacking. Both sides apologized to each other in that meeting as they realized they both could improve the communication between the park and kingdom.
Crimson reported the credits as the monarchy of Mourningwood Glen understood what was said, and as best they could determine during that lacking time of communication.

She also states; “I have also helped King's Point to get on the ORK and have helped update their records.” During this period of assistance didn’t KP almost lose their contract as well?
King's Point is a whole other book. Crimson has offered & has helped them at least as far as I know in the last part of last year and time and again in this year. If you'll look back in old messages, our kingdom PM the Monday after the Althing voting weekend mentions that she had issues with how the monarchy of KP on how they were keeping their records . The current kingdom PM or the monarchy of KP (then) are not the discussion here, but just showing that Crimson was not to blame for the problems that KP faced recently. She
is one of a few who have been trying to help them get onboard and approved at the kingdom level.

Additionally she stated; “I'm not one to wait a month or more to update my records I stay on top of things on a weekly basis.” And ” I believe I am more than qualified in doing the job as prime minister because I care about getting folks their credits and awards on the ORK and as accurate as they should be.”
To give an example on the speed and accuracy of Crimson as our park PM:Knight's meetings have some strict requirements to vote, and they pull the ORK records just before that weekend, and if the information is not there when the GM of knights jotted down the information, too bad! (At least this is how it was done in time's past) I have to say, my information was fine, and if I didn't have the attendance credits, it was because I was not physically there at the park to have an attendance recorded, not because our park PM (Crimson) dropped the ball.
So I have not had any worries. I can say there have been knights that I know
should have been able to vote that did not get their records updated in time (they were obviously under a different PM either park or kingdom, not sure), and that made it where they couldn't vote. So I was thankful to have Crimson as my PM considering that.

Accurate is the key phrase here. How do small children get credits and have the right to vote? What was the youngest person that “voted” for her? How was the child related to her?
Based on the people we have at Mourningwood Glen, we have multiple children, some are related to her, some aren't. At the time of the last PM elections, there was not any restriction on who could vote (that wasn't decided till later at the Althing), so anyone signing in as color and dues paid could vote. As for the youngest age of the person voting at the park, based on the youngest that would have voted, I believe that age might have been nine? It has been said that Crimson's three year old girl voted, or even their two year old boy voted but that did not happen.
Restating My Thoughts on Crimson
I've addressed the concerns of what some of you may have heard about Crimson.
Like I said before, those who have worked with Crimson as their record keeper have no complaints. And like I've said before, some have switched their records to Mourningwood Glen knowing that she was on the ball with the record keeping. There hasn't been a time that I've had to go to her and say "Where are my credits from two weeks ago?" or "My latest award, you going to get it in there soon?" I look and it's there.
My only complaint as the current sheriff of Mourningwood Glen is that I'll be loosing a trusted member of my park staff should she win, but I think the rest of you will be better for having her take care of your records like she has for us.
And really no matter who you are or where you play, I believe she will work for you as with the vigor and fairness we have seen in the reign(s) we have seen her work at the park.
Give her a chance at this and I know you'll be glad you did.
