Article VIII, Section 2, clause 4, one of the "carry overs."

"The procedure for absentee voting will be to make such declaration publicly to the Department of Forum Affairs, and then for the absentee voter to email their vote to the Chief Justice, Secretary of Forum Affairs and Attorney General."

The constitution also gives the Senate the authority to designate a manner of absentee voting, but I'm not seeing anything specific besides this "carry over."

Thank you, Mr. Chief Justice.  I wasn't sure of the procedure, since ILV had made an absentee ballot voting booth for October's elections.

Bah, no one else had ever done it that way Wink

Heck, I remember people whining at me for not starting an absentee ballot voting booth in July.

Why do I have a feeling that this will end up in the Supreme Court?

Because everything ends up in the Supreme Court.

Oddly enough, the October 2005 election didn't Huh

I am so touched that this thread was named for me.  Smiley

As you can see, however, I am not dead.

Wha?  Of course you are.  Go back in your coffin, ya 'ol relic.

Just kidding Fritz.  Hi! Grin Cheesy Grin Cheesy Grin *hughughughughug* Grin Cheesy Grin Cheesy Grin

I think our best bet at this point would be to just say "screw the Constitution" and have the election next weekend.  We can't exactly start a sudden election now as that wouldn't be fair to the voters who were unaware it was going to occur.

This is what the Midwest does for every election Wink
