Bylaws proposal: Section 4.1.3 Transparency of Election Results - Englishd - 04-02-2018

BECAUSE, we want to provide more transparency in the voting process; and


BECAUSE, the current practice is only to inform members of the winners; and


BECAUSE, this lack of information is not consistent with best practice; and


BECAUSE, members in the past have expressed curiosity in reviewing the full elections data; and


BECAUSE, anything that encourages trust in the elections process is a good thing; therefore


WE PROPOSE, That the WLWV Chapter 102 Bylaws, Article 4, Section 1.3 be amended to read:


Section 1
Original unchanged text, removed text, added text.
1.3 Elections shall be completed in the month of April and the results sent to the membership. The results shall be accompanied by a report that includes raw numbers as well as percentages, describing voter turnout, votes cast for each candidate/nominee/proposal and any other pertinent information.

The online voting option we're using this year makes that pretty easy to accommodate. I was planning on posting at least some of that info to the website after the voting concludes, according to what the current Bylaws allow.
