Establishing a quarum

When establishing a quorum in a representative body is it determined by the number of representatives present or by the votes they represent?

It should be determined by (and stated in) whatever rules govern your representative body. If RONR governs, it will be determined by the number of representatives who are physically present. But if your organization is structured in a manner other than one person-one vote, your rules will have to spell out how, or if, that affects the establishment of a quorum.

 

The RONR default quorum, in the possibly remote chance that your rules say nothing, is a majority of the membership, who must be physically present at the meeting.
