Notes:
- The purpose of a request of "Division of Question"
is to divide a motion that is composed of two or more independent
parts into individual motions that may be considered and voted
on separately.
- A Delegate has the right to request a division of a motion
that has two or more separate and distinct propositions. Each
portion of a divided resolution must be able to "stand
alone" on its own merits. This means that a each portion
is not dependent on the success of the other part of the division.
- A division of the question is out of order when the two portions
are dependent on each other and cannot stand alone and independent.
