The winning candidate must have at least 2/3 votes of the council (rounding up, eg if we have 13 team leads, then we need >= 9 votes)
The winning candidate must have more votes than any competitors
If there is a tie between the candidates, the Team Exec and the existing leads of the team will discuss it and make a final decision.
Team Exec will pick at most 2 candidates for one position during the Team Exec review period. (If two positions are available then we will pick at most 4 candidates for voting)
If multiple candidates are eligible, the voting will be in parallel, which means that each candidate will be treated as a separate voting process. You can vote for both of them, which means that you are equally happy about either candidate being the lead. For example, if both Candidate A and Candidate B are eligible, then we will vote on A first, and then another vote for B, then the team exec will collect the result and check the vote with rule #2 & #3. If there is a tie, then rule #4 applies
