[vox] LUGOD officer elections

[Bill Kendrick]

Our next meeting is the first meeting after the time change,
so it's officer nomination & election time!

>From our Bylaws ( http://www.lugod.org/objectives/bylaws.html )...

  Section 4:  Elections for Officership and Transition

   Nominations for elected officerships will be opened at the meeting
   directly after spring and fall daylight savings time changes, and will
   remain open until the beginning of the election at the next meeting.
   You are allowed to nominate yourself and nominations do not need to be
   seconded.  A person nominated for an officer position may decline the
   nomination at any time before the election takes place.

   Elections for elected officerships will be held the meeting after
   nominations are opened.  Voting is to be anonymous.  In the case where
   a candidate runs unopposed, typescript may ask that their approval for
   officership be passed by consent.  If there is an objection to consent,
   the candidate must be approved by a 2/3 majority of a general meeting.
   If no candidate is elected for a position, nominations will be re-opened
   for that position until the next meeting, when a new election will be
   held, and so forth, as necessary until all positions are filled.

   A newly-elected officer's term shall commence at the beginning of the
   meeting after elections are over.

So that means, nominations open at this Monday's meeting, Nov. 19th,
and remain open until our next regular meeting, Monday, Dec. 17th.
