The returning officer shall be the first mentioned non-nominee in the 
list: Secretary; Chair; Treasurer; Committee member; willing member of 
the association; with lots drawn if there is a tie. The count is the 
responsibility of the returning officer, with two non-nominee members 
selected at random from those at the vote as witnesses. The results 
will be made available to all members at the meeting and published in 
the next newsletter.

I've changed the RO selection along the lines of Alex's suggestion. I 
am surprised this attracted so little comment. If nothing else, I 
expected Andrew to express a good strong opinion about how to do 
this...
