so the 40 ministers in an assembly, including former pastors between churches cannot vote b/c either they are licensed locally or are not "full time" pastors or evangelist?

and are the dues the same for a full time pastor who can vote, and say a locally licensed part time preacher/evangelist who cannot?

1. He is automatically qualified to vote, if he is a pastor. Period.

2. Yes, the dues are exactly the same.
