What is a typical voting process?
A typical voting process is defined below:
- A Call for Votes is posted, including the mechanism for casting ballots and time period during which ballots are accepted
- At the end of the voting period, ballots are tabulated and reviewed by the Chair or the Technical Editor
- Results of voting are posted, including a summary of the vote and the votes cast by each organization.
This process is illustrated below. A typical voting cycle should be completed within a three-week period. Some voting periods may be longer due to holidays or other events.
The three-week voting period is typical as stated above, but an iTC can choose to do it quicker if necessary.
