15. NOMINATION AND ELECTION PROCEDURES

BALLOTS

Each delegate will be given, at registration, an election booklet for which he/she will sign. There will be no replacement of lost ballots once they have been signed for. Each booklet will have 12 ballots of different colours that could be used for elections. On each ballot will be written the vote entitlement of the delegate.

Ballots will be prepared ahead of time since local unions must send credentials sixty (60) days prior to the opening date of convention as per Article 8.05 of the CEP Constitution.
