Constitutional Amendment

Shall Lincoln amend Articles 1 and 5 of the Lincoln Constitution to read as follows per the passage of L.C. 10.8? (Select one)

4. The Council shall have the power to determine its own methods of proceedings, to elect its Speaker and other officers, and to judge the qualifications of its members. No councilor shall serve simultaneously as Speaker and as Chancellor.

6. Every bill passed by the Council, before it becomes law, shall first be sent to the governor. If they approves of it, they should sign it and it will become law; but if they disapprove they may refer the bill to a general referendum. The Council may override the reference of the governor by three-fifths two-thirds vote of all elected MCs. If the governor fails to take any action on a bill within 120 hours of its passage, it shall become law. a) The governor may instead choose to return a redrafted version of the bill to the Council. The Council shall then vote by simple majority on whether or not to accept the redraft. Should the Council accept, then the redrafted version shall be enacted into law; however, should the Council reject the redraft, the original version shall again be presented to the governor, who must then choose either to sign the bill or send it to referendum.


15. Early elections for the Council may be called by the governor as long as the snap election does not occur less than a month two weeks before a regular election if they determines that no government can be formed, following the failure of a confidence vote at the beginning of a new parliamentary term or the failure of any councilor to produce a government as described in Section 6 of Article II or following a successful vote of non-confidence in the government and failure of the successive confidence vote to produce a government. In addition, the Governor may call a snap election at the request of the Chancellor, be it that the snap election does not occur less than a month two weeks before or after a regularly scheduled election.

Article 5 of the Lincoln Constitution is amended as follows:

5. Candidates for governor, Council and federal Senate must declare their candidacy in the appropriate thread at least 48 hours prior to the scheduled start of any regularly scheduled election and at least 24 hours prior to the scheduled start of any special election in order to appear on the ballot. Party identification of gubernatorial candidates may not be displayed anywhere on the ballot. Party identification for candidates for any other office may be displayed below their name.
