(Example: 19 x ½ = 9 ½ = 10 votes needed for majority.)” (Constitution and Bylaws 2017 ed.) Elections Committee  

Spoiled BallotA ballot will be considered spoiled if the general voting procedures are not followed in their entirety. Internal Audit Committee Election ProcedureA maximum of three (3) shall be elected to the Internal Audit Committee. If more than three of the candidates on the ballot receive a majority vote, only three can be elected. Those with the highest vote totals. The run-off procedure will be followed in case of ties or lack of majority votes to fill the position(s).   Nominating Committee Election Procedure The Nominating Committee shall be elected at the same time as the election of officers. A minimum of four (4) and a maximum of eight (8) shall be elected. The committee (which includes the Nominating Committee Chair) shall consist of an odd number. If all candidates on the ballot receive a majority vote, the maximum number that can be elected to the nominating committee is eight. The run-off procedure will be followed if one or more candidates does not receive the required majority of votes cast to fill the minimum of four (4) positions. Run-off Procedure – By paper ballot If no candidate(s) receives a majority of the votes cast for a particular office/offices, members must continue to vote for those offices until someone is elected. The top two candidates will remain on the run-off ballot (RRONR 11th ed. p. 441.) Sorors will be given a ballot, a scantron sheet and voting instructions for ballot completion. #2 pencils will be provided to mark the scantron ballot. Please note, any other writing implement will make the scantron ballot invalid. After ballots have been marked, they will be placed in a sealed ballot box prior to exiting the ballot area. Failure to deposit the ballot prior to leaving the area will render the ballot invalid. Ballots will be counted immediately after voting ends on Election Day and the Election Committee Chair will announce the results.     Elections Committee [slide 2]
