CRO seat reorganization

[Sir X. Pol Briga]

Due to difficulty in comunication, the CRO seats will be reorganized as follows
X. Pôl Brigâ 12 perches
Ián Danôis 12 perches
Yassine Khalifi and Javier Otto Jorge Gold Ferrari will share the one remaining CRO perch, until and unless one additional perch can be reallocated from those "To Be Determined" that were voted for the CLP.

Fellow Party Leader X--

I probably shouldn't discuss this in public, but what the hell?

You may already be doing this, but in case not...

How about you and I, after asking Fritz's permission, jointly register as party leaders for the CLP. We split the registration fee even-steven, and split the CLP seat assignment (80 percent of the seats for DOTT and 20 for CRO?...Or maybe 50-50 would work?)

After that, maybe we can open a round of negotiations aimed at creating the DOTT-CRO Colossus?

[Sir Alexandreu Davinescu]

I trust that our dear Conta is joking about assuming the seats of the CLP, considering how they were clearly mandated to the now-dissolved party and not this new CLP he is proposing?

[Danihel Laurieir]

Unfortunately, I'm not joking. Should I be? Must I be?

[Capt. Sir Mick Preston]

I wonder where the good Count got that idea?

[Danihel Laurieir]

It's true...This diabolical plot was not my idea, hard as that may be for some to believe. But I suppose it's less hard to believe that I took too long in putting the wheels in motion...and now the matter is in the wise hands of the King.

For the record, the DOTT supports distributing the now vacated CLP seats evenly among the three parties. This favors the opposition parties slightly, but I think that's fair...because a vote for the CLP this time definitely had a whiff of protest about it.

[Sir Alexandreu Davinescu]

I think splitting them evenly among the three parties would be far more appropriate. Regardless of the potential whiffage of the CLP votes, we can't be arbitrarily assigning seats based on what we think the voters were thinking and give them to a a new party of the same name simply because they are not the RUMP.

[Capt. Sir Mick Preston]

Unfortunately, I must refer to Org Law Article VIII, Section 4.

To wit:

"MCs may not be removed from office except by a two-thirds vote by the Cosâ and approval by the King. An MC vacates his seats if he fails to vote on two consecutive Clarks, or if he resigns from office or dies."

If they fail to vote in the June Clark, THEN you can reassign them.

So, the seats can't be reassigned- yet.

Nor can they be shared:

"Any seats left unassigned at the end of the first Clark of the government are considered vacant."

The vacant seats are now the temporary property of King John, awaiting reassignment.

I'll put away my wet towel now.

Just one (probably unnecessary) clarification. The CRO perches can be redistributed if the members in question personally inform their party leader and the Chancery that they wish to relinquish some or all of the perches back to the leader for reassignment.
