>> Board Members... We need your direction on these races.
>> Candidates are listed by totals, not position on the Ballot.
>>
>> NC Race
>>
>> Candidate A 253
>> Candidate B 160
>> Candidate C 102
>>
>> No Majority. We assume that there would be a runoff.
>>
>> SE/MA SC Representative is an 11 / 11 tie
>>
>> We assume a runoff again. But you need to come up with a
>> tie breaking procedure for a possible second tie.
>>
>> SW/SC CC Representative
>>
>> Candidate A 59
>> Candidate B 52
>> Candidate C 45
>> Candidate D 45
>>
>> Problem, we received 136 ballots (272 potential votes,
>> majority would be 68) so a lot of people only voted for one
>> candidate. We suggest that you use actual votes to
>> determine a majority.
>> Total votes 201, one quarter of 201 round to 51, 2
>> candidates have a majority
>>
>> Do you want us to run the run off elections? On the run off
>> elections, what is the time period? We would like to see a
>> two week time period. A month seems too long. We would

>> through Wednesday, August 18th.

>> We would like to announce the races that have been decided
