The vote to select the secretary of the Libertarian National Committee will proceed as follows:

On each ballot, a member of the Committee will cast a vote for at most one person on the list of candidates, or cast a vote for "None of the Above."  The candidate who receives a majority of the votes cast on a given ballot is selected to serve as secretary.

Should no candidate receive a majority of the votes cast on a given ballot, a subsequent ballot will be distributed.  Candidates who received 0 votes on the given ballot will not be included on the subsequent ballot.  In addition, of those candidates on the given ballot who received at least 1 vote, the person with the fewest votes will not be included on the subsequent ballot.

The voting process will continue until a ballot produces a candidate who receives a majority of the votes cast on that given ballot.

INFORMATION CONCERNING E-MAIL BALLOT PROCESS:


From the Libertarian Party Bylaws:

Article 8, Section 10:
  
The National Committee may, without meeting together, transact business by electronic mail. The Secretary shall send out electronic mail ballots on any question submitted by the Chair or cosponsored by at least 1/5 of the members of the Committee. The period for voting on a question shall remain open for ten days, unless all members have cast votes, or have stated an intention to abstain, by electronic mail to the Secretary. Votes from alternate regional representatives will be counted, in accordance with the ranking procedure of the region, only if the regional representative fails to respond to the ballot.
  
The number of votes required for passage of any motion shall be the same as that required during a meeting. The Secretary shall preserve all such votes until the next meeting of the National Committee, at which meeting the Committee shall order the disposition of such votes.


From the LNC Policy Manual:
  
Section 1.04 ELECTRONIC MAIL BALLOT PROCEDURES

1) Electronic Mail Ballots (endnote 31)

Electronic mail ballots shall not include an accompanying argument for or against passage of the motion. Notification of an electronic mail ballot shall be made by the Secretary by electronic mail. An LNC Member may change his or her vote on an electronic mail ballot, provided that the change is received by the Secretary by the deadline for return of ballots.
