BALLOT RESULTS:
96 ballots were properly qualified and counted, and the results were as follows:
Motion 1: Yes - 90 + 1; No - 4; Abstain - 2
Motion 2: Yes - 92 + 1; No - 3; Abstain - 1
Motion 3: Yes - 55 + 1; No - 37; Abstain - 4
Detail:
8 envelopes were received which had no signatures on the outside – 2 of these
contained two ballots (10 total voters). None of these ballots were included
in the official count.
1 properly prepared ballot envelope was received from a name not found on the list
of eligible voters provided by the Membership Secretary. This ballot was not
counted.
An envelope was received containing two ballots, with 2 signatures on the outside
– however, 1 signature was included in the return address and qualified on
the eligible voter list, but the other signature could not be matched on the
eligible voter list, and that name was not included in the return address.
Since it was impossible to determine the identity of the writer of the 2nd
ballot, both were disqualified. On further inspection and since both ballots
were voted exactly the same, a “+ 1" was noted for each question
representing the technically eligible voter.
