I am confident in Demrepdan's ability and don't have the energy to read 9 fricking pages! I'm sure it's all fine...or maybe I'll read it tomorrow...

Sorry to complain Dan, but I don't like the idea of national elections for the Senate.  I thought that it would be a inner-district election, not a totally national one.  A national election would slant EVERY seat to the party with the most memebrs nationally.
I don't recollect finding such a provision in the Constitution. It provides, "In order for a Senator to be elected, he or she must first declare they wish to be a Senator, and then they will be approved by members of the forum who live within that respective region or district by way of election."

He's referring to Article I, Section 2, Clause 3.

I put that in there in case there was a TIE within the region or district...I know it seems kinda weird...but I was trying to think "what if there IS a tie...then what do we do?" And that's the best I could come up with.

Please inform me if you have any suggestion on how to more properly approach a situation in which there is a conflict with votes resulting in no winner within a district or region...and I will comply with your request.
But what if the forum ties as well?

Then the world comes to an end.

I just realised that despite the fact we voted for preferential voting it isn't in the constitution...please fix this, Dan.

Otherwise, I'm happy enough with it as is.

We did? Cool! Cheesy
