Elections Committee wants Your Help!

Taken from: http://cya-ajc.ca/forum/index.php?topic=1111.0

"I need some people to review and make advice on the current elections act. 

You can grab yourself a copy here: http://election.cya-ajc.ca/publications/ (on the cool new test site).

Take a look to make sure the election document has everything it needs and nothing it doesn't.  We need to ensure that it's flawless and encompasses every situation known to man.  If there is anything unanswered, we need answers.

We also need to ensure parties are up and running, we should outline the current process (they apply, it's reviewed, we put their party on the site, they get 10 or whatever candidated and we make them official) and see if they want that changed.

We also need to get advice regarding problem situations.  What do we do when there are valid claims of illegitimate voting, people just coup d'etating the party, etc.

If this gets bigger, we can split it up into sections like we did with the bylaws (and that worked, those docs are amazing because of the peer review process).

So take a look, give me your thoughts, and help improve the Elections Act (in turn improving the election). Have your say in how your election will be run! Thanks a lot!"
