Section 9.9. Supervision of Elections.
The Secretary shall supervise all elections for elective positions at large. The Secretary may appoint a committee of tellers to count ballots and perform other routine duties. The Secretary shall decide any question arising during such an election concerning:
- the interpretation of any provision of these Bylaws or of Rules made hereunder relating to election procedures;
- any procedural problem relating to the election which is not covered by these Bylaws or by the Rules; or
- the interpretation of the intent of a voter in marking the ballot.
The Secretary's decision shall be final. The Secretary shall remain neutral in the election and shall not engage in electioneering, except for advocacy of his or her own candidacy for offices for which he or she is nominated.
This work is made possible by the generosity of individual donors and congregations. Please consider making a donation today.
