1. The votes for (a) are two and the votes for (c) are two. The Lieutenant Governor is invited to break the tie.
2. The ayes are three and the nays are one. The bill is so amended.
3. The ayes are two and the nays are three. The bill is not amended.

Regrettably, we cannot proceed until Simfan breaks the tie.

Upon reading this amendment and considering the various options, I have decided to vote for option A of the first proposal.

Nay

It's unfortunate that our legislature has been captured by anti-freedom fanatics.

Aye.

I was also informed by the Chair that during the vote I could also bring up a motion to move Senator Napoleon's proposed new Constitution for the Region to the top of the queue.

The honorable member from Massachusetts is cautioned once more against unparliamentary attacks on other members.

The honorable member from Massachusetts moves to suspend section 2a of the Standing Order on Legislative Procedure. Members will vote aye or nay on the motion: this will be a 24 hour vote.

Aye on the motion to suspend section 2a.

Has the bill been passed?

Yes. The ayes are four and the nays are two, so the bill passes.

Obviously, though, we must wait on the vote on the motion to suspend section 2a of SOAP before we can continue.

Aye on the motion.

Mr. Speaker, please advise the Governor if the honorable member from New Jersey, Mr. Elyski, has missed at least three votes on legislation in a row in the Assembly.

In such case, by terms of the constitution, this seat is vacant, and I will be required to call a special election.

In fairness to Mr. Elyski, I do not choose to act on this until I have received formal notice from the Assembly that Mr. Elyski has in fact missed at least three votes in a row.

Thank you.

He has, Governor Winfield.

On the previous question the ayes are three and the nays are two. Section 2a of SOAP is suspended and the Assembly will now consider the bill proposed by the gentleman from Massachusetts.


Debate will last 48 hours.

I see no reason to move the capital, though in light of the constitution as a whole this is of minor consequence. 

I'm not happy with 5 members to the Assembly, as I think this is to big.  We can barely keep those we get elected in office because they miss votes.  Our Lt. Governor shows up once in a while.  I'd be happy with 3 members and no Lt Governor, or 4 members with the Lt. Governor.  Whichever is most likely to pass would be nice. 

Well done with Article II, Section 11 Napoleon.  I'm glad this has been added.  For the sack of hearing opinions, could you [Napoleon] argue why 5 members would be better than 3?
