la garçâ malpadert Group: admins (4379 posts total) (last post: March 13, 2008 - 16:29) Citizen #22: Miestrâ Schivâ | I have great pleasure in announcing that, twenty-four hours from now, the Constitutional Convention's first round of voting will close.
All amendments, unless anyone changes their votes, have passed, except Amendments 6 and 7. I strongly encourage someone to break the tie on these amendments. If no-one breaks the tie, I announce that I will live up to my responsibilities as chair, change my vote to "Austenéu" on both these amendments, and therefore allow them to pass.
A reminder that once I have posted the amended Second Draft Constitution, there will be a second round of suggested amendments. I foreshadow two amendments: (a) one to institute a unicameral system (since honestly I don't see the point of the Upper House if everyone can run for both houses), and (b) one to make quorums for voting in the legislature optional (since M-P seems to excited about this).
I ask once again: someone break the tie on Amendments 6 and 7, please! I don't want to have to give up my vote.
