You should register once for each club you represent. The following examples apply:
- You are the president or vp education of a club and will be carrying both votes.
Register once using the Club Officer Registration link and indicate you will be carrying both votes. The other officer should not register as both votes will go to the person indicating they are carrying both votes. - You are a president or vp education of two different clubs and will be carrying only 1 vote from each.
Register for both clubs using the Club Officer Registration Link and indicate you will only be carrying your vote. - You are a member of the District Executive Committee (District Executive, Division and Area Directors)

Keep in mind that DEC members can carry at most 3 votes. So, plan accordingly.
A quorum consists of one-third of all eligible Club Presidents and Vice Presidents Education. A majority of the votes cast is required to pass a motion. In the event that any business is transacted at a District Council meeting when a quorum is not present, the action shall be deemed as valid as if a quorum were present if it is thereafter expressly approved.
