Can a Lot Owner pre-vote the day before the AGM, for a 'from-the-floor' nomination for an office bearer (eg, Treasurer) at AGM?

Your advance vote shouldn’t be counted.

‘From the floor’ means that the voting or nomination is taking place live during the meeting so you couldn’t vote in advance of this because it hasn’t happened.

You may be aware that someone is going to nominate from the floor, but in that instance all votes would stilled be polled from those present at the meeting. Your advance vote shouldn’t be counted.

If you want to have your vote counted, it would be best to attend the meeting.
