RE: New Working Group Announcement | Official Election Results
My little knowledge thinks the number should have been odd as even number could bring up a tie in situations demanding elections. If this happens in future, how do you guys intend to break the ice?
Awesome question and something that was considered in the decision process. We will be covering a "tie breaker" process in the guidelines that we will be compiling soon. While this situation never came up in the first group, we feel it is important to have a set plan established if and when it ever does come up. Once we have compiled and decided on those guidelines, we will be publishing to the community.
Nice, I will be looking forward to that..
Easy solution. Have a group chair with a decisive vote :)
And yes, have an internal election for the role of the chair :))
That option is on the table.
In the first it was just sort of implied from the beginning that the chair would be there for a tie breaker without much discussion on the matter.
Just need to do this right, discuss and put it “officially” in place.
do the two-thirds vote, that could be a solution.
I think, that also with odd number can be tie isn't it ?
One can give no vote, f.e. because he is ill or also he just don't want to decide, or their is the rule that you should take side in this group ?
