sMargaret Posted November 30, 2012 at 03:50 PM Report Share Posted November 30, 2012 at 03:50 PM It would be inappropriate to ban members of the nominating committee from being nominated themselves, unless your bylaws forbid this, due to a previous decision of your membership.RONR, page 433:"Members of the nominating committee are not barred from becoming nominees for office themselves. To make such a requirement would mean, first, that service on the nominating committee carried a penalty by depriving its members of one of their privileges; and second, that appointment or election to the nominating committee could be used to prevent a member from becoming a nominee."

Guest Guest_Dorothy Posted November 30, 2012 at 05:13 PM Report Share Posted November 30, 2012 at 05:13 PM What is the exact role of the nominating committee and how does it differ from the elections committee?At what point does the nominating committee cease in their roles? Is it when the slate has been presented before the body and the election should begin?During an election (led by elections committee) there is a tie...twice. The voting for this position has been carried over to the next meeting (almost 30 days later). Are there specific rules to campaigning during this time, if not specific in current by-laws?
