Mideast voting booth, July 2006

Apologies for the late-ness of this (I've been away, and without net access, for a week).

I've greatly reduced the power of the Governer over a potential Moot.

We have four things on ze ballot this month:

Mideast No-Bid Contract Ban Bill

1. Neither the Mideast regional government, nor local level governments, nor corporations majority owned by the above shall award contracts or concessions to individuals or corporations without an opportunity of fair competitive bidding.

2. Existing contracts or concessions that violate section 1 shall continue to be valid, but will require competitive bidding shall the contracts be renewed.

Legalization off Prostitution Proposition
Section 1: Prostitution shall be legalized in the Mideast region, save where specifically prohibited by state or municipal law.
Section 2: All prostitutes must be over the age of 20 years, and must sign a legal statement that their actions are voluntary.
Section 3: Prostitutes are forbidden to have customers under the age of 18. Any state, county, or municipal statuatory limitations will also apply.
Section 4: State and local governments shall have the right to regulate the prostitution industry, including for health and safety purposes. Such regulations may include, but are not limited to:
- Requiring use of a registered location while engaging in business (ie forbidding 'street work');
- Requiring mandatory drug and venereal disease tests;
- Mandating use of contraceptive devices during business activities;
- Implementing limits on prostitution stricter then those specified in Sections 1 to 3 of this act.
Section 5: Where no state or local regulations exist as per Section 4, the following regulations shall be followed:
