They are general resolutions under different statutes of the
constitution; one is a recall of a dpl, with the ballot being
recall/don't recall.further discussion; the other is a position
statement, with a proposal and now an amendment. Any other amendments
may still be offered for the position statement.

A reasonable person might not like what the DPL did,. and
might not want to support him, but might not consider it warranting a
recall.
So, a person might want to a) not recall, not affirm,
b) not recall, affirm, or c) recall, not affirm.
Seems like there is reasonable grounds for considering them
independent.
