12.1  Voting is normally by voice, by rising, by show of hands, or by ballot.
     12.2  When more than one person is nominated for the same office, the method of voting shall be by ballot.
     12.3  All members who are eligible to vote shall do so unless excused by the judicatory. Members thus excused shall not be allowed a vote in subsequent proceedings relating to that particular question.
     12.4  The moderator shall vote only when the moderator's vote would create or break a tie, or cause or block the attainment of a two-thirds majority, or when the vote is taken by roll call.
     12.5  No member should vote on a question in which the member has a direct personal or pecuniary interest not common to other members of the judicatory. This does not mean that members are prevented from voting for themselves for an office or other position to which members generally are eligible (see Robert's Rules of Order, Section 44).
     12.6  When various motions are made with respect to the filling of blanks with particular numbers or times, the question shall always be first taken on the highest number and the longest time.
     12.7  When the moderator has begun taking the vote, no further debate or remark shall be allowed except to correct a mistake.
     12.8  A roll call vote on any question shall not be taken unless requested by at least one-fifth of the members present.
     12.9  In all elections, a majority of votes are necessary to elect.
