Just to clarify, how would that work, bore?

The wording may not be perfect, but the intention is that if an amendment gets either 60% of the vote, or the support of two thirds of the regions, it'll pass.

So there would be multiple voting booths open?

That would be at the SOFE's discretion.

[Fmr. Pres. Duke]

Ideally, we would at the very least pass an amendment ensuring the SoFE is in control of the amendment voting booth so we can avoid that happened in the pacific and IDS recently.

Such a proposal was rejected both by a majority of the regions and the voters barely two months ago.

[TNF]

I'd be much more comfortable with one booth and requiring 2/3rds of the vote rather than multiple voting booths.

Yes, because relieving them of yet one more aspect of responsibility, is sure to ensure they will become more responsible in the areas of governance that remain. That road leads someone man, and I don't think you will like where it is going either.

Sponsor Feedback: Hostile I guess
Status: A vote is now open on the above amendment, Senators please vote Aye, Nay or Abstain.

[bore]

Aye

The SOFE could if he wanted too, like with regional senate seats, put in all in one booth.

[Senator Spiral]

Nay

[tmthforu94]

Abstain

[Maxwell]

Nay

[TNF]

Nay

[President Tyrion]

Aye

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

It preserves the balance I like, though the threshold is too low for my tastes. It involves the Regions but not in the administration process and removing more responsibilities from them isn't going to help our situation with activity problems, just create a self-fullfilling process of inactivity. 


A reluctant nay.

[Gass3268]

Aye

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

Vote on Amendment 58:25 by bore:

Aye (3): bore, Gass3268, and Tyrion
