Think of all those grinning politicians at the ballot box on election day.  Do you think they are voting for the other guy?  If you won’t vote for yourself, why would anyone else vote for you.

Self nomination, however, is different under NSW law.  You can’t nominate yourself if you are a co-owner (but your co-owner can nominate you provided they aren’t standing for election). [Edited]

Hi Jimmy,

Just read your post… So can two EC members (before being elected) nominate each other? Say like a chair nominate a treasurer or secretary or vice versa?

My committee have always nominated each other on those positions before allowing other owners join the committee! Can I ask were self nomination is clarified in NSW Law?

This sounds very fair to me, as it limits autocratic behaviour and may out liability on the ‘other’ owner who votes on a self-serving EC member.
