Guest Katherine Posted January 12, 2018 at 08:13 PM Report Share Posted January 12, 2018 at 08:13 PM We are holding executive board elections and I am on the Nom Com. Two of the three on the Nom Com are wanting the open position. 1. Can the third person on the NC nominate one of us? I have read and re-read and I cannot seem to find a definite answer. Help me out y'all. Thank You, Katherine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jstackpo Posted January 12, 2018 at 08:37 PM Report Share Posted January 12, 2018 at 08:37 PM Yes, and indeed there is nothing prohibiting an individual from actually nominating him/herself (cuts out the middleman). It's called "volunteering" - a much nicer word. But since this is in a committee, the volunteer will presumably have to get majority agreement for the committee to offer his name as a candidate. Had you made it to page 433, line 29, you would have seen the "It's OK to nominate a committee member" rule. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Brown Posted January 12, 2018 at 09:40 PM Report Share Posted January 12, 2018 at 09:40 PM Agreeing with Dr. Stackpole, it is perfectly ok for members of the nominating committee to themselves be nominated for positions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
