prior to the conference, and not trying to shoehorn it into a normal
meeting, is you could hold each office's election separately. First,
nominations for Chair, then we vote for the Chair. Then Vice Chair
nominations...etc. This would allow someone who was nominated for Chair
to declare interest in running for Vice Chair or Secretary, if they
don't win the Chair position. I feel that this kind of thing, while
possible, is much harder to accomplish with our current election
process. <br></span>--------------<br><br></div>Do you mean to say that the officer nomination/election process would all happen in that last week (week 6), right before the conference? And it would be done in stages - everybody vote for Chair, announce winner, now everybody vote for Vice-Chair, announce winner, etc? I'm not sure if a week is a reasonable enough time to accomplish this. Or maybe I've misunderstood you.<br></div></div></div></blockquote><div><br></div></span><div>Well, there are a few things to keep in mind here. </div><div>a.) only the EOB itself votes on its Board positions, so we're dealing with a small voting group (and a small amount of elected positions).</div><div>b.) the manner in which it has previously been handled is via nominations and voting all within the confines of the meeting at the conference - which is a much more limited time frame and one that I feel may stifle the process.</div><div><br></div><div>So, we could do nominations and voting via email/irc/balloting that week. Or we could just do nominations and do the voting at the meeting if we wish. I think the most important part at this point is to at least agree that we can put out a call for new EOB member nominations on March 4th. We can work the rest out later if need be.</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks for the input!</div><span><font color="#888888"><div>Grace</div><div><br></div></font></span></div>
