The changes require a “yes” vote from two-thirds of those who vote. Further, at least a quorum of the membership (2 percent) must vote before any changes can take effect. A quorum of VEA’s membership would be 350. The last time a bylaws change was voted on (2011), approximately 1,000 members voted (about 5 percent). For the changes to pass, the outcome would require a “yes” vote from two-thirds of however many people vote, provided at least 350 members vote. For example, if 1,000 members vote, 667 would have to vote “yes.”
