I wish I could get the rest of my Board to understand your 2nd sentence, 2nd paragraph. NC statutes state that electronic voting can be approved in 3 ways - Art. of Incorp, OR Bylaws OR by action of the Board of Directors. Since our Bylaws are pre-email, they don't mention electronic anything. Some Board members & general membership believe that since email voting is not mentioned, we can't do it. On electronic communication, the NC laws don't even say, "Unless the Bylaws say otherwise..." (55A-7-08 & 55A-1-70) Once I was appointed Secretary 3 years ago, the Board was on board with me sending out agendas, requests for votes, budgets & financial statements. I didn't realize an official motion had to be made to do so because a) I'd never heard of Roberts Rules and b) I'd never dug into the NC statutes.
