What is the minimum number of days a member must be in good standing to be eligible to cast a vote?

Explanation:
Being eligible to vote hinges on having a member status that’s established for a minimum period before the vote. The rule sets sixty days in good standing as the threshold. This window ensures the voter has an ongoing relationship with the organization, is current on dues, and has demonstrated continued involvement before casting a ballot. Thirty days would allow voting too soon, before that commitment is established. Ninety or one hundred twenty days would unnecessarily delay eligibility beyond what the rule requires. So sixty days best fits the expectation that voters are meaningfully connected to the association.
