[FreeDemsCon] Amendments to Party Constitution

[Miestrâ Schivâ, UrN]

Can I propose the following amendment, to be added to Section IX of the Party Constitution:

A member who participates in none of the discussions or votes at any Convention shall, at the conclusion of that Convention, be deemed to have resigned their membership.

The above amendment which adds a Section IX to our Constitution will be officially open for discussion for 72 hours. (Noting that it has been open for discussion, albeit unofficially, for quite a bit longer than that.)

I have some remarks on the amendment but it's impossible to type with a phone. Extending period an additional 48 hours to correspond with voting in other threads. Miestra, can you remind the members of the goings on in the convention?

While I recognize the irony of this amendment, I must disagree. We are welcome to all, and thankfully we do have some in-depth discussions from time to time in our Facebook group. Due to the lack of interest in conventions, however, I plan to offer an amendment that would do away with them entirely, and replace them with more of a town-hall speech only atmosphere that we can hold from time to time. We can elect our party officers on a yearly basis by email and facebook to all the members. Furthermore, I also plan to put forward an amendment to clarify what quorum is when it comes to business, as well as to clarify the scenarios and time frames by which votes can be extended.
