The Rep Link automatically becomes a Circle Member of any broader Circle that holds the Role that Circle breaks down, with the authority to represent that Role just like a Role Lead.

Upon request of any Circle Member, the Facilitator of a Circle will facilitate elections using the process and rules defined in Article 3 to elect one person into its Facilitator Role and one into its Secretary Role. No Role or Policy may assign these Roles or remove an assignment via any other means, nor modify the required process. The only candidates normally eligible for these elections are those Partners filling Roles within the Circle. However, a Policy of the Circle or any Circle ultimately containing the Circle may allow additional candidates or further limit the candidates eligible for election.
