''Closing and Reopening Nominations.'' Before proceeding to an election, if nominations
have been made from the floor or by a committee, the chair should inquire if there are any
further nominations. If there is no response
he declares the nominations closed. In very
large bodies it is customary to make a motion
to close nominations, but until a reasonable
time has been given, this motion is not in
order. It is a main motion, incidental to the
nominations and elections, cannot be debated,
can be amended as to the time, but can have
no other subsidiary motion applied to it. It
yields to privileged motions, and requires a
