The We're No Longer Lazy Good-for-Nothings Act

WHEREAS, OrgLaw requires that provinces conduct their own Senatorial elections unless the province specifically makes a request to the Secretary of State to conduct the election, and

WHEREAS, In November of 2013 the Maricopa Cabana, the hottest spot north of Havana, passed 45CL1 which specified that the Secretary of State shall conduct our Senatorial elections, and

WHEREAS, 45CL1 had a clause which terminated the request for the Secretary of State to conduct our Senatorial elections in the event that the Secretary is no longer a citizen of this great province, and

WHEREAS, The position of Secretary of State no longer belongs to a citizen of this great province, thereby terminating 45CL1, and

WHEREAS, The term of office of the current Senator of Maricopa expires at the end of this Cosa, and

WHEREAS, There is an interest in conducting our own Senatorial elections rather than pass them off to the Chancery, so

THEREFORE, The Cabana hereby directs the Provincial Secretary to draft a proposal for the conduction of future Maricopan Senäts elections, to be submitted to this body for consideration no later than two weeks following the date this bill passes. The proposed method by which the election would be conducted shall be at the determination of the Provincial Secretary, but at no time shall any proposal exclude the option of casting a secret ballot.

FURTHERMORE, In the event that the Cabana has not approved such a proposal at least ten days prior to the start of the election for the 49th Cosa, the Premieir of Maricopa shall be duly authorized to reserve the Sistine Chapel in Vatican City for the purpose of conducting the Maricopan Senatorial election for the 49th Cosa by a method that mirrors a Papal Conclave.

FURTHER-FURTHERMORE, Should the Premieir be unable to reserve the Sistine Chapel at least nine days prior to the start of the election for the 49th Cosa, the Cabana hereby requests that the Chancery of the Kingdom of Talossa conduct the Maricopan Senatorial election for the 49th Cosa.

I don't remember that we need one...just a majority of votes cast.

Ah, ok. I thought it was the majority of members or something.

Our constitution doesn't set out requirements for a quorum, but simple majority vote.

Gotcha. Well I guess since both passed, a plan needs to be put together to present a method before the Cabana for adoption in time. Since you're provincial secretary, it's on you to come up with the method and rules and such, but I can offer my assistance if you'd like.
