[Businessmtg] Motion #18 Poll Results

[List Administrator]

Members of ASP's Business Meeting, 

The results of the poll for Motion # 18: 

 "I MOVE WE RESCIND MOTION #7 AS WRITTEN." 

[MOTION BY ANNE O., SECONDED BY DIANE M.] 

For:          16 

Against:       1 

Abstain:       0 

Did Not Vote: 12 

2/3rds of the 29 eligible BM voters needed to pass (20), Motion #18 has
Failed. 

Motion #7 remains the Group Conscience of ASP: 

"It is moved that ASP send Newcomers Packets to new members that are -
new to ASP, new to Al-Anon and who request it.  Fulfillment expenses to
come out of the ASP treasury budget." 

ASP must devise, put in place, and finance a means of offering Newcomer
Packets [Now Newcomer Booklets] to any new ASP member who is both new to
ASP and new to Al-Anon who requests one. 

NOTE: 

Not voting on a motion, while an acceptable choice by eligible members,
has the same effect as casting a no vote. However popular a motion may
be, participation by all members is needed to determine the will of the
Meeting. I encourage all BM members to vote when future motions are put
before the BM.
