For some unknown bureaucratic reason, the Section numbers are not the same as 
the Division numbers.

Since the meeting is mainly a vacation for the poli sci academic profs, it is 
highly unlikely that anything substantive will be done to get Democracy into 
U.S. legislative bodies (via proportional representation) and end the various 
gerrymander indirect minority rule governments (i.e. mostly talk and no 
action).
