Hi,

I have a question and figured this is the best place to ask it


Can you run for separate offices concurrently, because I cannot find any mention in the Constitution about it

[At-Large Senator LouisvilleThunder]

Hi,

Yes you can, but you can't serve in both offices at the same time if you are elected to both.

A declared or write-in candidate in a presidential election may only run as part of one ticket, indicating such in the Candidate Declaration Thread, or through his or her vote in the case of a write-in candidacy. A declared or write-in candidate in a presidential election must have a declared Vice Presidential candidate in order to be a valid candidate.

In fairness to Wulfric, he did say it was unconstitutional. If it really is unconstitutional, then the Federal Electoral Act is irrelevant.

I would also make a further (weak) argument that the FEA is somewhat internally inconsistent.

[Kingpoleon]

I intend to sue, effectively immediately, and postpone the election. I will see you in court.

[Dr. MB]

I intend to sue, effectively immediately, and postpone the election. I will see you in court.

Just run a write in.

[Wells]

Delaying a whole election for a candidate who isn't even going to win anyway...

[Kingpoleon]

I intend to sue, effectively immediately, and postpone the election. I will see you in court.

Just run a write in.

I would, even though it would hurt my campaign, but others have promised to sue if I don’t. I haven’t been taken seriously, and I don’t intend to be reduced to a write-in campaign unless necessary. Consultation has given me good enough odds to move forwards, and I believe the noted outrage over this is sufficient for a lawsuit.

[President of the great nation of 🏳️‍⚧️]

You know the drill. Presidential election first:



Thank God Medea Grippin swept the write-ins. That makes my job a little less annoying to do.

(Note since Sestak reminded me: His vote went to Kingpo before Griff, so in the third round, Griff has 96 and Kingpo has 7)

House results. 3 Feds, 3 Labia, 2 Peace, 1 ACP. 5 Left, 4 Right.

Rest in Peace. PM me if you want to serve as Deputy SoFE. I'll announce my pick by November 1.

[President of the great nation of 🏳️‍⚧️]

I hereby nominate AustralianSwingVoter as Deputy Secretary of Federal Elections.

Might as well make this official, since he was the closest thing to an opposition that applied.
