I don't agree with that reasoning. Of course people will vote to keep the power they have. That's just human nature. The idea should be to have a specific alternative in place, present it to the gameside, make a compelling case for it, and let them vote based on that additional information.

Than the Assembly should establish specific alternatives for abolishing the Local Council, some of which already discussed both on different thread and on Discord, and bring a rough outline for a regional poll. Because offering just two option (first option being whatever the Assembly decides, with the other one being status quo) is antithetical to our democratic principles where the forum-side would be ruling top down like a colonial government. 

We already have several rough ideas out there. The Assembly should hear what the RMB says before moving onto any legislative measure.
