  1. 2013 NACo Credentials Process A Webinar for State Associations 6/7/13

  2. State Association Ballot Pick Up • State association pick up now the default • Opt out, not opt in • Pick up is 2-5 pm on Sunday July 21 • Pick up by state association presidents, or president’s designee • Be sure your president designates someone

  3. New Ballot Transfer Process • Ballots need to be in hand to cast votes • The transfer of a ballot picked up by a county delegate to someone else must be documented • Ballots need to be presented, and transfers validated, if a vote is challenged

  4. Record of Ballot Transfer

  5. State Voting Totals Form • This form needs to be filled out during the state caucus to ensure distribution of votes decided on at caucus matches votes reported • The transfer of a ballot picked up by a county delegate to someone else must be documented

  6. State VotingTotals Form • Should this be replaced by a grid so each county’s vote can be recorded?

  7. Possible State VotingTotals Form

  8. Procedures for Multiple Rounds • If one candidate has not received 50% +1 of the vote after the first round, the fourth place candidate will be dropped from the ballot and the second round of voting will continue with the top three. • If one candidate has not received 50% +1 of the vote after the second round, the third place candidate will be dropped from the ballot and the third round of voting will continue with the top two. • If, at any point, a candidate withdraws from the election, the voting continues in the next round without that candidate.

  9. Procedures for Multiple Rounds - Ties • If there is a tie between third and fourth place in the first round of voting there shall be a revote • If the revote results in an additional tie between third and fourth, a revote will be held with only the first and second place finishers in the previous round • If there is a tie between the second and third place in the first round of voting, the fourth place finisher will be dropped and we shall revote with the top three candidates • If, at any point, there are a total of three candidates and two of them tie, revoting will continue until one candidate receives 50% +1 of the vote.

  10. Questioning the Election Process • Challenges may be made from two sources: • Candidates may challenge any state • Delegates may challenge their own state • If a challenge is made, ballots, state voting totals forms, and other documentation must be presented to the credentials committee to verify the legitimacy of a vote
