Bylaw/Platform Proposal Discussion: Maximum time limit for discussion on each proposal is 15 minutes. At the end of the discussion time, the body may motion to extend the debate time by a specific number of minutes by majority vote. Speakers are limited to 2 minutes each. Speakers may ask the person proposing the bylaw change questions, who may give short responses. At the end of the discussion period, all pending amendments are voted on in their current state after which the main motion is voted on. Speakers face the chair when making motions, and may face the body when presenting information.
Voting Threshold
Bylaw 9A: All matters to be voted upon by any committee established by these By-laws or any convention or precinct caucus shall be by majority vote of those present and authorized to vote, unless otherwise specified herein.
Voting Percentage Calculation
Due to 9A requiring a “majority vote of those present,” Roberts Rules 44:7-9 requires the denominator of the percentage calculation include all credentialed voters in the hall at the time of the vote. To comply with this requirement, the chair will ask if everyone has voted before closing balloting so the ballot count is the denominator.
