I have been adding information regarding Vuode to the new wiki site. Going through things I have gathered that the Dreu was the V class premier and that his term just expired with the dissolution of the 43rd Cosa. With no one coming forward to contest the seat and with no election taking place, the seat is now vacant. From my interpretation of our constitution, I think we have two options: - The Cunstaval can appoint someone to fill the seat, or
- Leave the seat vacant since we plan on changing how it all works anyway.
(The current sitting premiers are myself (O-class, term expiring with the 45th) and Viteu (U-class, term expiring with the 44th) ... which means if Viteu adds his name to the 'clean up' act then the act passes and the old joke acts are instantly repealed.)

Correction, the "old jokes acts"will not be considered repealed until this dreadful constitution is no longer in effect.
Moving on, based on Article VII, Section 1, if we need to have that seat filled, we could call a vote of no confidence and then elect someone else to the seat, say Sir T, who can then work with us to get a new constitution in place. Just a thought.

Article IV, Section 4 says "Each time the Cosa is dissolved, one of the premierships shall be vacated" ... meaning the seat is definitely empty right now. I don't think we can call a VOC on an empty seat.
Article IV, Section 7 says "If a premier vacates his or her seat before the end of term, the Cunstaval shall appoint an interim premier to serve until the next general election. The new elected premier shall serve until the end of what would have been the premier’s term."
I think the quickest and easiest way is to have the Cunstaval appoint Sir T to serve as Premier for the next session and until the next elections. We can surely have things fixed by then.
And just so we have it said... A.IV.S.2 says "The Estats Xhenerais is composed of three premiers, all with citizenship in the Province of Vuode."
Based on that, I see no other option than for Sir T to sit. He is the only other active enough person in Vuode able to fill the seat.
Just my thoughts.

I agree. And with 2/3s of the Estats Xhenerais calling for the placement of Sir T in the V class premier, I think the Cunstaval should get on it.

(or should we ask Sir T if he wants this first?)

That sounds in line to me. If Sir T would like to join the premiership, I'd be happy to appoint him.

But I do so on one condition: That, now that we're done with the election, we can finally get rid of Dreu's constitution, and build one that works. Trotxâ

Well then, I think that is settled. With Sir T taking the role of V Class Premiership, I say we move to a constitutional convention.
