question

can you have a unanimous vote with an abstention
passage · full text (573 characters)
Practice varies as to whether a vote can be considered unanimous if some voter abstains. In Robert's Rules of Order, a ``unanimous vote'' is not specifically defined, although an abstention is not counted as a vote regardless of the voting threshold. Also in this book, action could be taken by ``unanimous consent'', or ``general consent'', if there are no objections raised. However, unanimous consent may not necessarily be the same as a unanimous vote (see Not the same as unanimous vote). In either case, it does not take into account the members who were not present.
