Since the passing of the GCR, the % passed on from state conventions to the SBC Executive Committee has been heavily discussed. Because of the increased interest, we’ve compiled this listing from the annual meeting reports provided by Baptist Press. If there is a discrepancy or a correction needed, please email jonathan@sbcthisweek.com. For the state conventions not listed, no information was readily available or made public.
Two quick notes from the data:
- 16 state conventions remained unchanged in their % passed on to the SBCEC, but 6 of those are already at or above a 50/50 split
- 7 state conventions are now at or above a 50/50 split (Iowa, Nevada, Kentucky, Florida, SBTC, SBCV, Colorado)
