Chris Harrison Posted October 11, 2014 at 09:29 PM Report Share Posted October 11, 2014 at 09:29 PM Absentee voting (via email or normal mail) is not allowed unless the bylaws specifically authorize it (RONR p. 423). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edgar Guest Posted October 11, 2014 at 10:33 PM Report Share Posted October 11, 2014 at 10:33 PM a motion to change the bylaws to allow such vote to happen? No... just an amendment to the bylaws authorizing e-mail voting. What's the difference? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Brown Posted October 11, 2014 at 10:38 PM Report Share Posted October 11, 2014 at 10:38 PM What's the difference?I think the original poster was contemplating a bylaw amendment to authorize this one particular vote, whereas Dr. Stackpole was thinking of a bylaw amendment to authorize email voting generally... not just in this instance.
