Ga Vote. Amendment To Ga Rules Sec. 8

[Josephus I]

The following, proposed by Per Park, is now open to voting until Saturday 6 pm ET.

8. 51 votes must be cast for the vote on the matter for a quorum to be considered present. When a quorum is present, a majority vote, that is a majority of the votes cast, ignoring abstentions, is sufficient for the adoption of any motion that is in order, except for constitutional amendments and overides of vetos, which require a two-thirds vote. On a tie vote the motion is lost.

The measure easily passes, 72-0 with 28 votes not cast.
