[Dictator] 2nd Debate to Resolve Constitution

Day 3,052, 01:03 Published in United Kingdom United Kingdom by Mr Woldy


Hello Citizens!

First of all, a massive thank you & well done to all who voted in the referendum that was held yesterday. I was personally pleasantly surprised with the turnout, and think it is a testament to our political engagement that so many people cast votes. (25 No, 21 Yes, 2 Abstain - 48 in total, with one disqualified for forig cit [side note - would have been 49 if I could figure out which way UNO was trying to vote).

Now, to update you on the situations: both the previous Congress’ impeachment vote and yesterday’s referendum on whether said Congress can continue for a month were voted down. This means that the CP is safe to continue, but does not solve the fact that we still have no Congress.

This article shall act as the debate period for a second referendum, which seeks to decide which of the proposed solutions to no-Congress we shall adopt until April 25th.

The following were the main suggestions I was able to discern from the previous discussions. Please feel free to discuss/refine/alter these suggestions, and after a approximate 24hr period voting shall begin (I am back in work on wednesday so will have to publish the vote article an hour early). There shall be a none of the both above option in the final vote.

Option a). The Dictator assumes the responsibilities of Congress.
Option b). All Congressional matters are decided by public Referendums.
Option c). Hold a meta-election to appoint a new Congress.

Note - no matter what the outcome all scenarios will end when a new Congress is elected in April.

Things to consider: how will a budget be set, who is making decisions, what about sensitive materials, how can we make it fair. In the cases of B and C, I think it is best that I held the referendum or election as Dictator. Please don’t worry about my increased workload should you feel they are the best choices*.

Enjoy discussing!



Thanks for reading,
Woldy
