No person may be convicted of an offense except as provided in s.
322.045 (2) or s. 322.051 (4) or by the concurrence of two-thirds
of the members present at the time the vote is taken.
(2) All other questions to be decided by the members of a
general or special court-martial shall be determined by a majority
vote, but a determination to reconsider a sentence, with a view toward decreasing it, may be made by any lesser vote which indicates that the reconsideration is not opposed by the number of
votes required for that finding or sentence. A tie vote on a challenge disqualifies the member challenged. A tie vote on a motion
relating to the question of the accused’s mental disease or defect
is a determination against the accused. A tie vote on any other
question is a determination in favor of the accused.
