Voting — Round 1
#1

Voting for the July 2019 Delegate Election takes place in two stages. This is the first, the forumside vote. Two candidates will progress to a second gameside vote.

Voting will run from now until 11p GMT / 7p ET July 12.

The forumside Delegate election is a preferential ballot election. You are going to list candidates in the order you prefer them to move forward, with the first candidate on your ballot being your most preferred, etc. You do not have to list all of the candidates. If you don't like a certain candidate, you do not have to list them at all.

As always, there is an option to Re-Open Nomination (RON), which you can list at any point in your ballot. If this option gets first place, the election will start over from scratch, with a new round of nominations. If this option gets second place, then the first-place candidate will move forward to the gameside election, and a new election will take place to choose the second candidate. You do not have to include this option in your ballot if you don't want to.

Copy the list of official candidates below into a new post, or message the Vote Collector. Reorder the candidates in your preferential order, and remove any candidates you don't want to vote for at all.

Additional note: Only those who became Legislators before July 1 can vote. Votes from those who have become Legislators since then, or are not Legislators will not be counted.

I would like to note an official complaint for the record the voting system here is wrong. The first round uses approval voting, not preferential:
Quote:(2) On the first of every January and July, the Assembly will convene for the first round of Delegate elections.
a. Any eligible legislator wishing to run for Delegate may declare their candidacy, and the Assembly will debate the merits of their platform. Any player who has been banned from World Assembly membership will be considered ineligible and any candidate who is later discovered to be banned from World Assembly membership will be immediately disqualified.
b. The campaign and debate period will last one week, after which the Assembly will vote for 3 days.
c. This round of voting for delegate will be conducted using Approval Voting.
d. The two candidates with the highest number of approvals will move to a second round of voting conducted via a poll of Native World Assembly members.
e. Should the voting result in a tie, more than two nations may move onto the second round of voting.

Seeing as this difference in systems renders all but one of the ballots cast so far invalid.
