Subject: [BOARD-L] Motion 06-02
Motion made by Jeff and seconded by Karen is numbered 06-02.
Please signify your acceptance (Yes) or your non-acceptance (No)
of the following motion. Voting will end Sat Mar 4th, 9:00 p.m.,
unless completed eariler.
I Move to accept the following proposed EC Guideline changes.
Proposed EC Guideline Changes:
The EC submitted its proposed procedures under Section III. "Use
of Registered Voter List." The Voter Fraud Committee feels that
the changes belong under Section B "Duties of the Subcommittee;
Item 3: The EC shall also be responsible for maintaining an
up-to-date Registered Voter List."
CURRENT GUIDELINES:
NO CHANGE:
I. All Project members who are eligible to vote, shall also be
eligible to Register to vote.
II. Such Registered Voter List shall be kept updated on a
continuing basis through the following:
a. Maintaining a site and means for members to register to vote,
to change their membership participation or email address, or to
remove their name from the Registered Voter List.
b. The notification of availability of registration through
postings to all appropriate Project lists, broadcast messages to
the entire membership through use of the Membership List, and by
whatever means the EC shall deem necessary and helpful from time
to time.
c. Registrations shall be accepted throughout the year, with the
exception of 30 days before the National Election begins,
continuing through the end of that election
i. Registrations shall be actively solicited during the months of
April and May
ii. For Polls and other appropriate elections, a period of not
less than two weeks shall be provided for Registrations.
CHANGE:
[existing: d. State Elections are exempt from member registration
[change to: d. Registration is necessary for all elections
conducted by the EC.]
NO CHANGE
d. d. Verification of all voter registrations shall be
determined by:
i. Checking State and Special Project web site listing of members
ii. Cross checking against the Membership List
CHANGE:
[move item f, "Other means as the EC shall deem necessary from
time to time." to item iii]
[iii. Other means as the EC shall deem necessary from time to
time.]
REMOVE:
e. Any discrepancy shall be directed to the appropriate local
leadership or appointed contact person within the voter's state
or special project, for resolution. In the event the appropriate
person does not respond in a timely fashion, or resolution has
not occurred, the matter shall be forwarded to the AB Regional
Representative for resolution.
ADD:
e. Though members may use various email addresses for the
projects they are associated with, only one name and e-mail
address will be maintained on the voter list. Each member should
register once using one name and one email address. Multiple
registrations under multiple names and/or email addresses will be
handled as a discrepancy.
(1) All names and e-mail addresses used for registering will be
screened for possible discrepancies
f. Any discrepancy not able to be resolved between the voter and
the EC, unless the discrepancy is possible fraudulent
registration, shall be directed to the appropriate local
leadership or appointed contact person within the voter's state
or special project, for resolution. In the event the appropriate
person does not respond in a timely fashion, or resolution has
not occurred, the matter shall be forwarded to the Advisory Board
for resolution.
g. In the event the EC discovers possible fraudulent registration
the AB shall be privately advised
h. No names associated with a possible fraudulent registration
will be removed from the Registered Voter List until such time as
the EC receives a final determination/disposition from the AB.
III. Use of Registered Voter List;
[existing - a. The confidentiality of the Registered Voter List
shall be maintained by the EC at all times.]
[Change to: a. The confidentiality of the Registered Voter List,
as a whole, shall be maintained by the EC at all times.
Individual information from the voter list will be released or
shared as directed by the Election Committee's current
guidelines.]
The EC requested item c be removed as it duplicates item b.
REMOVE:
c. Only registered voters will receive a password to vote.
