A TALB candidate may give a speech, limited to two (2) minutes at the February 28, 2023 Representative Council meeting. A CTA State Council candidate may give a speech, limited to one (1) minute at the February 28, 2023 Representative Council Meeting.
 
Candidates for Executive Officers, Executive Board Members and CTA State Council Representatives must be elected by a majority of votes. If no candidate receives the majority of votes cast, a run-off will be held between the candidates who receive the most votes. The run-off election schedule (if necessary) and candidates will be announced at the Representative Council meeting on Tuesday, March 28th, 2023. NEA – RA Representatives are elected by a plurality of votes. 
 
Majority – “More than half.”
Majority Vote – More than half of the votes cast by a person legally entitled to vote, excluding blank or illegal ballots. For example:
 
• If 19 votes are cast, a majority (more than 9 ½) is 10.
 
• If 20 votes are cast, a majority (more than 10) is 11.
 
• If 21 votes are cast, a majority (more than 10 ½) is 11.
 
Plurality Vote – The greatest number of votes cast by persons legally entitled to vote, excluding blank or illegal ballots.
 
Run-off Election – A run-off election is conducted when no candidate achieves the required majority vote. A run-off election is conducted among the candidates receiving the highest number of votes. The names on the run-off ballot will be one more than the number of vacancies to be filled. There shall be no provisions for write-in candidates on a run-off ballot. A majority vote is required to win a run-off election.
