    RE: [RC] AERC By-Laws Changes - Bob Morris


    As per the By-Laws now in effect;
    
    Section 3. The amendment shall take effect only if approved
    by two-thirds of those members who return ballots by the
    closing date for returning ballots. The Election Committee
    shall validate and count the ballots, and certify whether
    the amendment passes or fails.
    
    If only three ballots were received out of 5000 members, and
    two were for the change then it would pass. The current
    By-Laws do not state the necessity for a quorum, just the
    2/3 majority to pass of those who do vote.

    The booklet that comes with the ballot sates that "the
    quorum for this
    vote is 1784."  The mail arrived after I asked John the
    question. This
    means that if 1783 or fewer ballots are recieved (and it
    states recieved
    not mailed) by Nov 15 there is no quorum hence the bylaws
    fail to pass.
    If 1784 or greater with greater than 1/3 of the votes no the
    bylaws
    fail. It takes at least 1784 ballots returned with 2/3 or
    greater votes
    for the bylaws to pass. At least that's the way I read it.
