We already have 3 runners for the position of Secretary. They are:

We will be holding a vote for the role of Secretary at the general meeting for all ordinary and life members.

i know i don't have a say in this...

but shouldn't the position be handed out to the runner up since the winner has stepped down? why would you waste more time?

seems like the fair thing to do thats all...

Question....and this may sound .....stupid....

but why exactly is this going to a vote when there were only 2 people nominated and seconded for the role at the AGM?

[RCHOO]

shouldn't the position be handed out to the runner up since the winner has stepped down? why would you waste more time?

No ..

This will still need to go to a vote.

I imagine the process is laid out in the constitution, no idea where that is though

[R31Nismoid]

As its an Exec position.

Without checking the constitution (cant till friday as i dont have a copy here)...

I would be of the belief it requires an EGM (extraordinary gen meeting) to decide, as it requires a vote.

That is the fair thing to do, being the rules are to be followed.

It isnt about handing stuff out to people just "because"
