Amendment to the Consolidated Electoral System Reform Act

Section 8 of the Consolidated Electoral System Reform Act is amended as follows:

1. The candidacy declaration deadline for regular elections to the Senate shall be twenty-four hours before the earliest possible commencement of the election and for special elections to the Senate shall be twenty-four hours before the commencement of the election.
2. A candidate for a regular or special election to the Senate may withdraw their candidacy up to twenty-four hours before the earliest possible commencement of the election
2. The candidacy declaration deadline for full tickets of a Presidential and Vice-Presidential candidate to declare shall be twenty-four hours before the earliest possible commencement of the election. However, should the Vice-Presidential candidate withdraw his candidacy, then the Presidential candidate may nominate a new Vice-Presidential candidate up to thirty-six hours before the commencement of the election.
3. In all cases, the assent of both the Presidential and Vice-Presidential candidate shall be necessary for them to appear together as a ticket on the ballot.

I think a bare minimum of 24 hours is a fair deal and required to prevent any sort of uber-chaos that might occur if there was no deadline at all. And to allow the SoFA to work on the ballot beforehand as well.

We did this in the Mideast recently. It makes things much less hectic for the Governor.

Finally. This is a common sense reform that the Senate should pass. Thank you for introducing it, Senator Hashemite.

Aye: 6
Not Voting (yet): 2


This has enough votes to pass. Senators have 24 hours to change their votes.
