Ok . . . this is always a tough one . . .
Question 1: No, if I personally disliked someone I would not vote no . . . unless there were a valid reason that would affect the chapter.
I use a mental trick when I am judging someone. If this person were my friend would I hire him for my company?
Because ultimately I am not interested in just buying friends, and I can still remain friends with someone that is not in my chapter. This approach gives me a different perspective.
Question 2: How many black balls does it take to eliminate a candidate?
This varies from National to National and sometimes from chapter to chapter according to by-laws.
However, a lot of times, at least in NIC Fraternities, it can be anywhere from 1-3 negative votes to eliminate someone. And it can be this small a number no matter how large the chapter is.
