Can we clarify where the LC Nominations will take place, as well as campaigns?
RMB, Forum, etc.

I think Telegram the Delegate with your intention to run, and then update the WFE with the nominees.
Campaigning can be done via dispatches?
Then obv a poll for voting.

And thoughts on this?

I think it would be better to have a central nominations nation ("TSP Local Council Clerk" or something), unless Delegates get unlimited TGs. I don't remember if they do or not. I'm just wondering if TGs could be lost among all the other TGs Delegates get.

Idk if we want the delegate involved ... since the delegate shouldn't be involved with elections.

See the above change.

Telegramming an EC in the law and encourage sending to all 3 in practice just in case.

That makes sense.
Can we be specific on where the campaigning will be?
My fear is that the RMB will be horribly spammed during this time frame and people will not be too happy about it.

2(a) says we'll create a Dispatch. Do you want a line prohibiting campaigning on the RMB?

Also, think would have to be passed by the region at large, yes?
