order of election of officers

[Guest crabby maxine]

When electing new officers, is there a specific order you should go in, for example: President, Vice-pres., secretary, treasurer?

RONR doesn't specify an election order, but does specify an order for nomination - the order listed in the bylaws.

If you use a printed ballot with all the officer positions listed, then there really is no "order of election".

And you don't have to vote for one office before voting for another (though that is not an uncommon practice). You could have all offices on the same ballot (as is the case on Election Day). Which option to choose depends on the nature of the organization. In a smaller organization, you might want to vote for the "higher" offices first so the losing candidates can still run for the "lower" offices.
