</div></div>I believe this work has already been done, and therefore only members in good<br>

If you have both running concurrently, then you eliminate this ability<br>
to exclude those<br>
who have already voted.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I get your point here, however the way this could happen is to have a "temporary out of service period" before the AGM commences. Members who have not voted online can be filtered out and with that data anyone who collects the paper ballot gets disabled from online voting. <br>
<br>In that sense, the online voting status becomes the reference point before ballot paper can be given to any member. Any member who receives ballot then gets DISABLED from online voting.<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">

I see the advantage in this of course, but it does leave open the possibility that 2 people, working in concert can at least attempt to double vote. One person could even do it with the right timing.<br>

@Adam, I believe the By-Laws call for a paper ballot, but those could
be changed by the BoD as needed.<br>
<div class="HOEnZb"><div class="h5"><br></div></div></blockquote><div>Mmm...does it mean the online voting is not legitimately correct? which may not be the case as E-voting is defined in the bylaw. Me thinks the voting process may not have totally transitioned to online because the online voting is still in a "pilot stage". The ultimate desire will be to see it fully transition to electronic.<br>
