Andrew McHarg Wrote:Perhaps the fairest method of proxy voting would be to have a standardised (unbiased) form that's sent to every member prior to a meeting, with a note explaining how it can be used to vote on particular motions/candidates. A copy of the candidates and their manifestos, along with any motions would also be sent. Responses are then returned to a designated person and cast at the AGM appropriately. After the AGM a list of who voted (and how they voted) is published to ensure clarity and transparency. With this method it's more likely that the motions/candidates which are most popular will be voted in, rather than the motions/candidates who had the most aggressive vote soliciting process.
Andrew,
I would support this 100%. This would make things much fairer
