CALLERLAB Vote Update
Jul. 28th, 2008 11:23 amThere were three motions approved by the attending membership at the CALLERLAB convention last March in Los Angeles. These relaxed the caller dress code, gave the exec committee the responsibility of assigning maintenance of the formation pictograms & charts and retiring the glossary doc to the historical archives.
Since not everyone can travel to the conventions to vote, there is a secondary process: the approved motions stand unless they are overturned by a subsequent mail-in ballot. All members, attending or not, get a mail-in ballot; 1/3 of the ballots must be returned and the two-thirds of the returned ballots must vote to rescind the motions, otherwise they stand as is.
The latest CALLERLAB newsletter says the required ballot quorum of 1/3 of the ballots wasn't reached; only 268 of the required 295 were submitted. The original three approved motions stand as is.
