WHEREAS the Cleivi has passed two competing bills and;
WHEREAS it falls on me, the Provincial Secretary to come up with a solution, and;
WHEREAS I do try to get things done and I'm not really all that lazy;
BE IT RESOLVED that Maricopa will handle its own Senatorial Elections using the following method: The Provincial Secretary shall create an online, secret ballot using a basic plurality election. The candidate receiving the most votes shall be declared elected. Voting shall run concurrently with the General Election. All citizens of Maricopa shall receive via email and/or private message (if no email contact is possible) a personal voting code allowing only one vote per citizen. Any votes received at the conclusion of the General Election shall be discarded and shall be void.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that citizens of Maricopa shall have the option of voting secretly using the aforementioned online election or may choose to vote publicly in a thread created for that purpose.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that a voting thread shall be created for the purpose of public voting and/or providing citizens the ability to notify the Provincial Secretary of any voting issues that shall arise.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that 48CL1: The We're Still Lazy Good-for-Nothings Act is repealed.

Thoughts on the bill? Suggestions before I open voting?

You may want to explicitly state that The We're Still Lazy Good-for-Nothings Act (or the bill number) is repealed upon passage of this bill.

[...] BE IT RESOLVED that Maricopa will handle its own Senatorial Elections [...] That was the only bill that had contra votes...

Didn't the exercise teach us that that anything posed before the Cleivi will pass, due to Maricopans' laziness (or lack of activity)?

Didn't the exercise teach us that that anything posed before the Cleivi will pass, due to Maricopans' laziness (or lack of activity)? It may have. I didn't think there was enough interest in having our own voting method, but I proposed two bills because there was some interest. I left the voting method up to the Provincial Secretary in the event that there turned out to be enough interest among Cleivi members to vote for just having anything other than the Chancery. I did not expect both to pass, and both only did pass because, ironically, a significant number of members of the Cleivi failed to vote. Should this bill fail, 48CL2 states that the Chancery would be conducting our Senate elections for the 49th Cosa (meaning the bill will expire at the end of the election, no need for repeal), and 48CL1 would remain in effect throughout.

I'd be inclined to vote against this. We'd be likely to have lower turnout than if we let the Chancery conduct the election, and I don't see any gains.

Should we move to a vote?
