Points do not need seconds or votes!!

Yields:

If you finish speaking in formal debate or a moderated caucus before the time is up, you can yield your remaining time to someone else. There are three options:

  1. Yield time to the Chair (ends your time)
  2. Yield to another delegate (this allows another delegate with similar views to speak)
  3. Yield to questions (other delegates can ask you questions)
  
Other rules:

  1. Right of reply: You can write a note and send it to the chair concerning derogatory remarks made by another delegate.
  2. Appeal the Chair´s decision: If you think the chair has made an incorrect decision you can send a note in writing to the chair.
