Secret Ballot Arrangements

Each Member will be issued with a ballot paper and will cast their vote and place it in the ballot box. The Secretary will supervise the voting and counting of votes. If there is only one nomination, Members will be asked to vote for or against the Member nominated. In the case of multiple nominations, Members will be asked to select their preferred candidate. In both instances Members may also abstain. If two Members have been nominated and the secret ballot results in a tie, further secret ballots will take place until one candidate has received more than half of the votes cast. If more than two Members have been nominated and no Member receives more than half of the votes cast in a ballot, the candidate with the lowest number of votes will be eliminated. Further secret ballots will take place until one candidate has received more than half of the votes cast.
