Does anyone have a link to what can and cannot be included in the official Call of the Convention letters?

My BPOU included some rules prohibiting "Nominations from the Floor" in their Call Letter and I thought rules of the convention couldn't be included in the Call of the Convention.

Any help on the rules regarding Call Letters would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Weird, all I know is that nominations are supposed to be called from the floor from what I've seen and been through. I suggest and you've probably already thought of this, but try and contact one of your local leaders like Stebbins as see what they have to think. Sounds like this "new" rule is designed to allow those in charge to have their candidates pre-picked prior to the convention in order to box out any from the grassroots.

You have to make sure you have the right Rules of procedure edition for your area, but it should say in there.

dunno if this will help but it is a Q and a forum on Roberts' rules http://www.robertsrules.com/mboard.html
