Where are NA’s given a week to vote? Are you referencing the timeline that NA’s have decided on for themselves in their byalws, which FAN doesn’t have any oversight of in an official capacity?
This suggestion is why I interpolated that you wished for greater oversight of FAN member NA’s bylaws. Since we don’t have a formal say in the way NA’s conduct votes, FAN either stretches out our voting timelines to accommodate NAs with long voting periods, or FAN adopts specific language on how long NAs should hold open votes to be counted in our NA block.
Again, I would hope that Delegates themselves would be creating those “cliff’s notes” regularly and keeping their organizations up to date on current topics of conversation or at the very least directing their members to do further research & partake in active FAN forum posts themselves.
I understood that you meant At-Large block would get two Delegate votes.
And for clarification to readers who may not be privy: FAN doesn’t currently use the “Delegate” structure for the At-Large block. We instead conduct an online vote for that block, where each member is is given a vote, and if all votes pass a 60% threshold for a particular issue, then it’s considered a “For” vote on that issue. Much more deliberation wold be needed to discuss how 2 votes would work if given to members in 1 type of voting block. e.g - 2 votes to each member, or the final online vote being counted twice.
But our discussions about 2 votes in this thread up until now, as well as in this one were centered around 2 different types of voting members having a vote in each type of member block e.g. - 1 in their NA and 1 in the At-Large.
