How to Vote Counter the RDG Way
3. Suggestions
- If there aren't enough members present to have a dedicated vote counter, assign vote counting for speeches to the Toastmaster, vote counting for Table Topics to the Table Topics Master, and evaluator votes to the General Evaluator. Alternatively, assign vote counter responsibilities to the timer. Have your club decide how this will work.
- Your club may have extra voting such as "Most Enthusiastic"; just make sure to explain these in your role explanation so everyone knows to expect it.
- Consider adding a "fun" voting category at your meeting (just make sure it's appropriate and positive). Make sure you include it in your role explanation. Examples: "Most alliterative", "Most clever use of the word of the day", "Most eyeroll inducing pun", etc.
- As with other roles, if there is a meeting theme, you can adjust your role's explanation to fit.
- Depending on your club, you may need to provide or make sure there are ballots. The resources section has some forms you can use if you don't purchase forms from TI. Usually this should be handled by your Sergeant at Arms.
