PROCESS FOR SELECTING THE VICE CHAIR OF THE OFFICIAL METHODS

BOARD (OMB)

The process begins with the OMB.

Criteria for the Vice Chair of the OMB

Must have served for at least one year as a Member of the OMB

Must fulfill all the criteria for a Member of the OMB

The members of the OMB serve as the search committee for a Vice Chair. They

identify and recommend a slate of nominees as potential candidates for Vice

Chair. The nominees shall be contacted by the Chair of the OMB to confirm

his/her willingness and ability to serve. Once confirmation has been received,

the nominee(s) will be presented to the OMB for a vote. An email ballot shall be

sent out to the members of the OMB with the slate of nominees. The current

Vice Chair collects and tallies the ballots.

The selection of the Vice Chair will be decided by at least a majority vote of the

OMB. If there is a tie, the Chair will cast the determinative vote. If no one

receives a majority vote, another email ballot will be sent out with the top two

nominees who received the highest number of votes.
