Repeal of Article 5 of the Election's Act
#1

The following repeal has received a motion and a second.  
Legislators may vote aye, nay or abstain.
Voting will be open for 5 days (ending at 13:00 EDT on June 12th).
This must receive a 60% majority in order to pass.
Seeing as how this is not an amendment to the Charter, the game side will NOT need to vote on it.
Quote:5. Local Council

(1) Immediately following the ending of the Cabinet elections, the Election Commission will begin an election for the Local Council.

a. For the first 3 days of the election period, residents may declare their candidacy by telegramming an election commissioner
b. Following this nomination period, a campaign period of one week will start, where candidates may campaign and debate the merits of their platforms.
c. After the week-long campaign period, a three voting periods of 3 days will start.

(2) The election will be held via a regional poll accessible to World Assembly Natives, instructing them to vote for their preferred candidate.
a. A Dispatch containing the campaigns of candidates will be created to aid voters in their choice.
b. Upon the conclusion of the first and second rounds of voting, the candidates with the most votes will be awarded a spot on the Local Council.
c. If more than twelve people are candidates, the vote will be split into two 3-day polls with the top 12 vote-receiving candidates continuing onto the set of nine voting days.
d. Should the poll produce a tied result, in first or second three-day election, the tied candidates will receive seats and the unneeded elections will be canceled.
e.  Should a tie result in the third, three-day election, the tied candidates will move onto a runoff.
Above all else, I hope to be a decent person.
