- cOnly the members who give the most money can vote at the annual meetingBare medlemmene som gir mest penger, kan stemme på årsmøtet
Why?
In an association, the annual meeting (årsmøtet) is the most important meeting. There all members have the right to vote and they elect the board, and this is how many people learn how democracy works in practice.
