Note: the above citation of state law must be examined in context of the rest of the statute. Where state law contradicts our Bylaws, then state law takes precedence. But we must first determine the exact nature of the conflict. This is something the Board will need to examine. Once we have a determination of any change to customary voting procedure, we will email all full members. --[[User:Rdpierce|Rdpierce]] ([[User talk:Rdpierce|talk]]) 22:55, 3 August 2015 (CDT) | |||
Note: It appears Tom is correct about this vote requiring a 2/3 majority to pass. But state law appears confusing regarding handling of quorum and present votes. To ensure that this vote is conducted lawfully, PS:One has engaged outside legal counsel to provide an opinion of how the vote should be conducted. --[[User:Rdpierce|Rdpierce]] ([[User talk:Rdpierce|talk]]) 09:40, 7 August 2015 (CDT) | |||
