Guest sharon guck Posted December 12, 2011 at 05:51 PM Report Share Posted December 12, 2011 at 05:51 PM As temporary chair during election of officers...can I allow BOE members to speak on behalf of a candidate who is being nominated for Chair. In other words can their be discussion of/on each person nominated by anyone who wants the floor during the nomination process? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Harrison Posted December 12, 2011 at 05:55 PM Report Share Posted December 12, 2011 at 05:55 PM Nominations are debatable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George Mervosh Posted December 12, 2011 at 05:55 PM Report Share Posted December 12, 2011 at 05:55 PM Nominations are debatable, yes. Each member may speak to the qualifications (or lack thereof within the bounds of decorum) of each nominee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert B Fish Posted December 12, 2011 at 06:40 PM Report Share Posted December 12, 2011 at 06:40 PM While probably intended, the post does not state that the "BOE Members" are members of the group with the authority to elect the officers. The right to speak in debate is limited to those who are members of the group that's meeting, although the group - and not the temporary chair - could decide to grant them that opportunity.-Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
