Morgan.........there was no tie for Lew to have to vote! Carolyn marhaven@jps,net www.Marhaven.com ----- Original Message ----- From: MORGAN LEWIS To: Ginialtman@xxxxxxx ; gsd showlist Sent: Tuesday, September 18, 2007 1:45 PM Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] Re: Committee Changes DID LEW KNOW THIS RULE, IF SO WHY DID HE NOT VOTE, AND SAVE THE CLUB 1000'S OF DOLLARS. IF HE DID NOT KNOW THEN WHY DIDN'T HE KNOW, AFTER ALL HE IS PRESIDENT? WITH ALL THOSE E-MAILS SENT IN, WHAT DID THE BOARD MEMBERS THINK WAS GOING ON, WERE ALL THE MEMBERS CRAZY, IDIOTS, LIARS. WHAT THE HELL WOULD IT HAVE COST TO HAVE DELAYED THE VOTE 3 MONTHS TO DETERMINE THE TRUTH. YOU CAN NOT TELL ME THAT SOMEONE DID NOT TRY TO RAILROAD THIS THOUGH.

In the case of a tie the motion would ordinarily fail, the president can vote "yes" and then it passes. In the case of 8 "No" and 9 "Yes" the president can vote "No" which then creates a tie and then the motion fails.

So if a vote is 8 Nay and 9 Yay, the PResident CAN vote and Nay and It has always been my understanding that the President only votes to break a tie. Where's Ginny?
