Hmmmm, just took a look, not set up for memberships just yet, so noone can join yet... Electing the leader isn't why, it's the programming just hasn't been done yet to get it complete. If there were no leader, memberships are automatic, with a leader it is simply usually a formality to ask to join. They'll get it taken care of as soon as they can, may be a little bit yet though. Went through the same when Iowa got our own chapter as well....
