Azul!
Before the election there was some talk about repealing the Three Strikes Law -- the law that makes it automatic for you to lose your citizenship if you fail to vote in three consecutive elections.
What consensus, if any, is there out there on this issue?
For me, repealing it seems kind of pointless given how the King can forgive people who lose their citizenship due to it. But I could be persuaded, if people feel strongly about it. What do you think?

My only concern about repealing the Three stike law, is mostly an administrative one. keeping track of citizens that are no longer active is quite a task on its own.
I don't really have an opinion on the matter, but unless a decent alternative is found, I would rather keep the status quo.

I personally feel that as a citizen a person should be free to vote or not to vote in an election, and this should have no bearing on citizenship. As Ben said, he can already reinstate a person who has lost their citizenship by not voting, so I am not sure if we actually need to change the laws on this matter. I would certainly support the repeal of the Three Strikes Law if such a motion was brought before the Ziu.
