Nominations for the 2008 committee

[quote=“Ryan Paddy”]
What’s the story with the AGM and interested parties not being present? Those who want to run for positions but can’t be at the AGM, and members who want to vote but can’t be there?[/quote]

A member can give their proxy vote to someone else. Just need something signed to that effect.

As to the positions on the night, write something up and get someone of your choice to read it out.

Nope, haven’t been yet and I accept.

Are you sure? I don’t recall anything about that in the constitution. I’ll go take another look.

I’d like to “accept” the “nomination” for community officer.

I hereby nominate AJ for secretary.

I second Craig for general officer.

I accept the nomination of Secretary.

I nominate Craig for projects officer, and second him for general officer.

Cheers! I accept the nomination for projects officer.

I don’t really want to run against AJ, who has two years experience in the role - so if he is not elected secretary I will be endorsing him.

Somebody did second me, but I cant remember who.

Are any of the posts going to be contested, do you think?

We don’t know yet. People may step forth at the last minute.

If last year was anything to go by then nothing being contested would be unusual.
