Tie Votes Clause Samples
The Tie Votes clause establishes the procedure to follow when a decision-making body, such as a board or committee, is evenly split on a vote. Typically, this clause designates a specific individual—often the chairperson or a designated casting voter—to break the tie, or it may specify that the motion fails in the event of a tie. By providing a clear method for resolving deadlocks, the clause ensures that organizational decisions can proceed efficiently and prevents stalemates that could hinder operations.
