Sec. 4. Elections by council.

At all elections by the Council the voting shall be viva voce,
and each member shall be entitled to one vote. Only one person
shall be elected at a time, except with the consent of all
members present. If, on any vote, no one receives a majority
of all the votes, the name of the person receiving the smallest
number of votes shall be dropped, and shall not again be put in
nomination until a vote intervenes.

At each election the roll shall be called by the clerk in alphabetical
order, and each member shall vote when his name is
called, unless excused or disqualified by section 24, post.
