Lee, not sure if you understood Leanna's original statement, or maybe I don't, but the way it has always been in the past is as stated in your above post. If a district only has 3 then the 4th place kid is a bye. I think what Leanna meant was that if the there were 4 from a district and 1 of them chose not to go on, they would contact the 5th place kid. I don't think this means that if district 1 only has 3 kids that they will take an extra kid from district 2, 3, or 4. That would pose another problem, how do you determine which of the 3 kids from those other districts gets that one lone spot?
I could be wrong, but I do believe she means only within each respective district.
