The Constitution says it is supposed to be made by law, so this amendment is needed. The law needs changed.

Debate time has expired.  Members will now cast their votes on passage of the amendment.  This will be a 24-hour vote.

2/3 in favor needed for passage

Quote from: Northeast Speaker Scott on November 15, 2011, 01:06:01 PM
Amendment to the NE Constitution - Lieutenant Governor Vacancy Act

Article II of the Northeast Constitution is hereby amended:

In the event that the office of the Lieutenant Governor is to become vacated, or that the person who receives the most votes should not take the Oath of Office, a special election shall be held and the victor will take the office to finish the remainder of the term.

Voting time has expired.  The ayes are three and nays are zero.  The bill passes.

The Assembly will now consider the legislation introduced by the gentleman from Maine.  Debate will last for 48 hours.

The Absolutely Silly Act

1.  The amount of derps in the Northeast region may not exceed twelve herps.
2.  If the amount of derps does exceed twelve herps, the Northeast Assembly may herp the derps accordingly.
3.  The Game

This bill does not define what constitutes as a 'derp' or what the act of 'herping' is.  I'd feel uncomfortable supporting this.

I don't think that amendment passed. 3/6 isn't a majority.

Then the bill fails.  I will reintroduce the amendment when we will hopefully have better turnout.

Why does it have to wait until next session?

It doesn't, but three votes would pass next session.

Well, Napoleon already answered why actually.  Plus, we should have 5 more active members of the Assembly.

True, but turnout isn't normally that low.  Besides, I'd rather get it in before the next election in case Andrew decides not to run, no one wins the office, and we're stuck with the current law of appointing people.

Well.. The Lt. Governor is certainly going to be an odd issue either way.  Technically Andrew has a term until February I would imagine.  Even though our next election should go off the new constitution, I'm not sure yet how we plan to deal with the Lt. Governor position.

That's true, I didn't consider this.  Then I suppose it doesn't really matter when the vote comes up for it, but it's definitely an issue that needs to be addressed in the Constitution.

As for the current bill...

The number of derps in this country is approaching dangerous levels.  Clearly we must herp the derps to ensure that the Northeast economy doesn't herp.

Also, The Game.
