[Lnc-business] EMAIL BALLOT 220505-1: Amend Policy Manual 2.01

[Tim Hagan]

I vote no.

With the base for decisions being "3/4 vote of entire LNC", an 
abstention has the same effect as a negative. But members should not 
vote on a question in which they have a direct personal or pecuniary 
interest not common to other LNC members. The member with a financial 
transaction is in the position of either effectively voting nay, or 
voting aye when having a direct personal interest.

Reference RONR pages 403 and 407.
