Sunshine62 Posted August 29, 2015 at 04:55 PM Report Share Posted August 29, 2015 at 04:55 PM We are having an election by ballot, some say the candidates names need to be the way they signed up, others say in alphabetical order. We would like to know if Roberts Rules has a precedent as to how the names should be listed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As Mr. Martin suggested, it's up to the members. That said, alphabetical order is the most transparent. That is, anyone looking at the ballot will probably see that the names are in alphabetical order. If any other order is used some members may wonder why one particular name is placed before another.
