It is my objective to begin the process for the Seventh Chamber elections as soon as possible on that date. As former IM, I have the census results, and thus the most recent email addresses for every citizen, so there's no problem.

Why would we want to delay the missing steps in the legislative progress and / or to action? Okay, the Schivâ Doctrine thing may add some distracting pepper to the upcoming elections, but if this is a bad thing, we, the slowly working government, should have been aware of such possible conflicts in January.
Too bad and sad that we can't have two citizenship referendums instead.
