Exec Resignation

What to do if an Exec member resigns:

• If they resign within 2 weeks of the Exec election, the exec or Society/Club Coordinator should
  1. Recount the votes cast (if preference voting was used, redistribute preference votes of the withdrawn candidate starting again in round 1) and award the position to the candidate with the subsequent highest votes
  2. If a) not possible, Re-Open Nominations for that positon
• If the member of the Exec resigns after that period the current exec can
  1. Leave the position unfilled as long as it is not the Chair, Treasurer or Secretary
  2. Co-opt a member to temporarily take on the responsibilities of that role for no longer than 10 weeks
  3. Hold a by-election amongst all members if there are more than 10 weeks remaining in the tenancy of the position
