Subject: DCHAS By law ballot results
The deadline for postmarking ballots for the bylaws was April 1, so I
believe that I am likely to have received all valid ballots by this
point. The results are
> 205 in favor
> 6 opposed
> 3 unmarked ballots
The next step will be submission of these results to the American
Chemical Society's Committee on Constitution and Bylaws, who will
review the ballot and results before making the changes official.
Several people commented on the challenge of casting a single vote on
so many changes at once. This approach was taken at the suggestion of
the Committee on Constitution and Bylaws. The CHAS Executive
Committee expects to be able to implement item by item voting when
electronic balloting becomes an official avenue of conducting
division business.
Thanks to all who participated in this process!
