The constitutional amendments that are key parts of the Regionalizaiton Plan have one more step before they can be implemented. Having received a 2/3 approval from the General Conference they are now passed on to the annual conferences.

Each annual conference must vote to ratify the legislation.

Those votes are counted at each annual conference and reported to the Council of Bishops. Not until all annual conferences have met, voted, and reported their results will the Council of Bishops tally and certify those results and announce whether each proposed Amendment passed or failed.

What does the Book of Discipline say?

¶ 59. Article I.—Amendments to the Constitution shall be made upon a two-thirds majority of the General Conference present and voting and a two-thirds affirmative vote of the aggregate number of members of the several annual conferences present and voting, except in the case of the first and second Restrictive Rules, which shall require a three-fourths majority of all the members of the annual conferences present and voting. The vote, after being completed, shall be canvassed by the Council of Bishops, and the amendment voted upon shall become effective upon their announcement of its having received the required majority.

In the event that the General Conference adopts an amendment to the Constitution, the General Conference may immediately adopt enabling legislation for such amendment which shall be contingent on ratification of the amendment by the required two-thirds affirmative vote of the aggregate number of members of the several annual conferences present and voting, and effective once the Council of Bishops, operating as a canvasser of votes, announces that the amendment has been passed. In the same manner, an annual conference may approve legislation in anticipation of such a change in the Discipline and/or Constitution that would likewise become effective upon the effective date of said disciplinary change or Constitutional Amendment.
