From my point of view, pushing coming to convention to *vote* is a non-starter. Pushing attendance to get energized, learn many things that can be brought back to the branch, take advantage of personal growth opportunities, etc., etc. That is why people spend their own (and their branch's and state's) money to go to convention.
