Attention: S:reu Forestal of the PP party A-yet-to-be-determined CRO member And any RUMP members that want to become involved (I currently hold all 9 RUMP seats and am looking to share)
I hereby publish the order to assemble the Ataturk House of Commons. I would like to see everyone in the chamber by Friday, 19 DEC.
Just so everyone can know our agenda, here it is. 1.) Elect a new Premier. S:reu Matáiwos Nanamavéu has been MIA for some time now, and I consider the position vacant. He's welcome to run for re-election, but either way, I think we should pick somebody new. Ataturk has had a recent population boom, and the n00bs should get involved. 2.) We, as the legislative body, can refine the proposed Constitution and submit it to the Province for ratification. 3.) Any other reasonable business that we have the time and sobriety for.
To get the ball rolling, I nominate S:dâ Çelis del Þeracour to be our next Premier.
Is there a second?
See you all on 19 DEC!
Brad Cunstaval

To update everyone and also to bump this thread:
I have received instructions from the CRO party leader, XPB, that the CRO is to be represented by George Hargreaves. S:reu Hargreaves has until Thursday, 16 JAN 09 to accept before S:reu XPB's contingency instructions come into effect. (I will publish the contingency instructions if/when they become necessary).
Either way, we will continue with Provincial business as we are able.
RUMP seats are still up to the highest bidder! er I mean any RUMP member who wants to serve their province. After all, we're not in Illinois...

Hookay. So here is the deal.
Nominations for Premier are as follows:
S:dâ Çelis del Þeracour. She may still refuse her nomination, but we sure hope she doesn't.
The nominations are not closed, but we will start voting now. Voting closes on 16 JAN 09.
S:dâ Çelis del Þeracour now has 9 of the 12 votes as I'm voting for her. S:reu Forestal has the PP party's 2 votes, and S:reu Hargreaves has the CRO's 1 if he wants it.
The previously mentioned contingency instructions are that S:reu Forestal will be granted the CRO's seat if S:reu Hargreaves does not speak up prior to 16 JAN 09.
There is still room for any Atatürkey RUMPers if they would like to participate. I'm happy to share the seats.

I happily offer my 2 votes to S:dâ Çelis del Þeracour, and if the contingency plan goes into effect, her election will be unanimous on 16 January 2009.

I have developed a bit of hesitance here, given S:dâ Þeracour's absence, and her failure to vote in the recent Clark. I would very much like to see her presence, at the very least accepting this nomination. As it stands, she and S:reu Nanamavéu are in the same boat, as it were, with respect to the Premiership.

As fond as I am of S:dâ Þeracour, I feel that as she has vacated her MC seats by failing to vote in two consecutive Clarks, it might not be quite apropos to consider her for a governmental leadership position at this time.

The 16-Jan-09 close of voting is nigh. However, I'm a bit stumped. S:dâ Þeracour has not presented herself here to accept (or, for that matter, decline) her nomination, but I am at a loss as to suggest another person for nomination. Cunstaval Holmes, have you any suggestions? I sense us approaching a dead spot here......

I'm still trying to contact her.
Fear not! Provincial business can and will still take place, even if she refuses. Premier is not a mandatory billet. We can try elections again at a later time, if we so desire.
And our legislature should be remarkably efficient, seeing as how we are the only two members at the moment.

And so the deadline has passed. Are we governmental yet?

Sure, it's just you and me right now.
We'll table the Premier for the time being and start chopping the proposed constitution. Please PM your email address and I'll get a copy over to you. I'm going to make my edits/comments before I send it, so please give me a couple of days.

I have (for a not-all-that-inconsiderable time now) joined Senator Holmes in trying to contact my layabout sister Çelis. I have just now sent her yet another email urging her to attend to the provincial business of Atatürk.

I am honored Brad that you have nominated me Brad.
I have been absent lately and I would like to consider whether I will make sure to find more time to devote to my duties as a Talossan before I would accept such a nomination.
