Slating System
Actually, if your organization using Robert's Rules of Order as it is parlimentary authority, Slating is what you do.
Robert's Rules indicates slating through a nominating committee is the preferred manner to achieve the highest possible individual to perform a position.
After a slate has been presented, then nomination by petition or from the floor is called for, in order to have a "contested" election.
In my experience, 99.999999% of the time, you are fortunate to have a full slate, let alone a contested election.
