9th Convocation of the Provincial Assembly of Maritiimi-Maxhestic The results from this year's provincial elections, graciously conducted by Marti-Pair Furxheir, have yielded three seats for the RUMP and one seat for the MRPT. The TRP and ZRT, both of which were also registered, received no votes. Parties have assigned seats to the following individuals. List updated as needed.Name | Party | Seats | GSU Alexandreu Davinescu | RUMP | 1 | GGS Mick Preston | RUMP | 1 | Davíu Lundescu | RUMP | 1 | Magniloqueu Épiqeu da Lhiun | MRPT | 1 |
As Grand Specific Undersecretary from this past term and upon noting that a quorum has been assigned, I would request that the Assembly come to order and get to work. It has been the custom for many years now for this Assembly to begin by electing a Grand General Secretary, and then have request that the GGS notify the Chancery that we desire them to conduct the next elections. This latter is a precautionary measure, to make sure that we know that elections will be handled in case of emergency. If we choose to conduct our own elections, we can change our minds later. After that, we have other business: how can we increase turn-out, which fell again this year in M-M? And do we want to appoint another M3 and try our own way again? Let's get busy! It would be ideal if members could post to confirm that they are present and active.

All edits and changes have been reflected on the wiki.
Incidentally, by a weird coincidence today is also our local holiday of Maritiimi-Maxhestic Istuporaziua! How wonderful!

Do we really just have three people in the Provincial Assembly? It smells a bit like self-implemented oligarchy. I've always wanted to be a rich ruler, yay! Happy Oligarchiziua!
As for making matters a bit more earnest: Let's start nominations of GGS, shall we?

We have almost as many people as there were votes - a tragedy which is one of the things we need to remedy. Voter turn-out has dropped over the past couple of years by a whole order of magnitude.
I'd ask a moment before we nominate the GGS, if you wouldn't mind. The RUMP caucus has a matter about seat assignment in pending discussion, with a third party.

All right! So, nominations are now open for Grand General Secretary. I nominate our current Grand General Secretary and Senator, Sir Mick Preston.

Sure, I agree. Excuse my inactivity; since my mother came to visit me in Tenerife, I am rather out with her, for she is here merely a week.

So, I am guessing the nomination passes 3/4; shall we put this to a vote? And/or does anybody have anything for the good of the cause?
*I just caught sight of my provincial calendar and noticed that today happens to be Maritiimi-Maxhestic Istuporaziua! This holiday may explain the absence in our chambers as of late.

Okay, well, that's all four people having nominated or seconding someone. I was hoping to just sneak Mick into office, but I GUESS let's have a vote. There are two candidates: S:reu Alexandreu Davinescu and S:reu Mick Preston.
I vote for S:reu Mick Preston.
