Constitutional Amendment: Special Elections Amendment (Passed)

[Lumine]

I've tried to stay away from commenting on policy for the most part, but I did want to express a strong support for this particular measure and/or for alternatives which preserve its goal. Voters should have a direct say over who represents them, and we've seen countless examples of appointments - particularly in the case of smaller parties - leading to problems which are entirely avoidable if voters had the power to decide.

Personally, I don't find it problematic to ask voters to decide on a replacement as opposed to a less transparent process of appointment, particularly when said process has been clearly open to abuse in the past, and when we have the pre-reset precedents of special elections to the At-Large Senate.
