I read the second bullet point as "if at least 9 votes are cast, and 
the number of FOR votes was *exactly* one more than the number of 
AGAINST votes". I like the clause, but I can see how clarification 
would help.

The bit about "if they pass" is covered in a hand-waving manner by 
section 1 of that rule, which asserts that each specialty form has "a 
reward to be given to a Player who creates a Proposal of that type 
which passes". I assume the bonus provided by section 2.D is such a 
reward.
