George Mervosh Posted March 22, 2011 at 07:47 PM Report Share Posted March 22, 2011 at 07:47 PM "The vote on a motion is normally taken by voice (or viva voce),* unless, under certain conditions, it is taken by rising or - sometimes in committees, or in small boards, or other very small assemblies - by a show of hands. In putting the question by any of these methods, the chair calls first for the affirmative vote, and all who wish to vote in favor of the motion so indicate in the manner specified; then he calls for the negative vote." RONR, p. 43Unless the bylaws mandate a ballot vote under certain conditions, other methods, such as a ballot vote, are determined by the assembly.
