RFC 3797 is everything but easy and overdone for a tie breaker, IMHO.
If that happens at that stage, I'd suggest the RZERC seriously needs to discuss.
That means: repeat the discussion until exhaustion.
A tie could also occur in step 6.
Given that some of us seem to have one year terms according to their
originating so/ac procedures, I'd rather see a one year term for the
chair, as well.
