A motion was made and seconded to set aside the election of the ordained ministers to the Board of Directors. The Chair informed the assembly that this motion requires a two-thirds vote. The Chair asked whether the assembly is ready to vote and the response was affirmative (Y:946; N:92). The motion was defeated (Y:406; N:643). The convention returned to the Orders of the Day. The Chair announced a matter of personal privilege: the right for a delegate to bring up Res. 1-02 tomorrow for reconsideration, explaining that if this is announced today, the motion may be introduced tomorrow. 200l Convention Proceedings
