## What do you think? Question:

This question is submitted by Jeanne K. out of Connecticut

 

We have a five-member board. A Board member wants a modification and will abstain from the vote leaving three members and the President. If all four members vote and there is a tie, does the President still break the tie by voting a second time?

 

 

Thoughts?
