I disagree with the notion of allowing the GM to hold another office, as it seems to kind of be a conflict of interest to me. The person generating the headlines upon which the Senate should react should not be politically active, in my opinion.

I agree with Franzl, and I too also know one person who wants the job.

I am pretty sure the GM isn't in the Constitution at all? It was a position established by the Senate and, as such, can be regulated by the Senate. The power to create is the power to destroy.

No.

The GM is mentioned in the Constitution, but certainly not anywhere regarding the powers of the Senate.

All it says is that the President has power to appoint the GM, not the Senate. You've been a useless GM anyways so this will be passed and you can challange it if you want and hopefully in the end you can go back to doing nothing without an official position.

I think my fellow sponsor, MasterJedi, will agree with my request to attempt an override.

Yes, I do. This is now in the Veto override slot. On the veto override please vote Aye, Nay or Abstain.


Aye

I'm almost positive we need to do this on veto overrides so: This veto override has enough votes to pass. Senators now have 24 hours to change their votes.
