Rules specify that when we have a gender non-binary candidate or officer, the non-binary individual is counted as neither male nor female, and the remaining six officers must be gender balanced. With the results of the previous four elections, our elected officers are currently two male and two female.

In order to be gender balanced, we must elect one male, one female, and one person of any gender. So again. This is what we have to do for this vice chair race. We have to elect one male, one female, and one person of any gender.

To ensure our process accounts for male, female, and non-binary candidates, we conferred with our RBC co-chair, our LGBT caucus co-chair, and others to ensure that the process is inclusive and meets the gender balance requirements in our rules.
