If I remember rightly, Mencei should or must be from an opposition party. Who wants to stick their hand up this time 'round?
GV, Fiova
Dean of the Senäts
Well as far as I can tell the only senator who is a member of an opposition party would be the senator from Florencia.
(That said I don't think such a rule exists. It is a longstanding tradition that the Túischac'h is selected from the opposition benches, which is a nice tradition, but senators are not elected to represent their party but their province, so it doesn't really need to apply here.)
Anyway, copying from ESB: "pursuant to Standing Rules 2.3, "The Acting Mençei shall allow for nominations to be lodged for a period of at least a week from the beginning of a term. Should a Senator receive nominations from a majority of Senators, the nomination period shall end and the Senator be considered duly elected; otherwise, a ballot shall be held using Instant Runoff Voting. Seniority shall resolve any ties that may occur during any stage of elimination.""
So perhaps we should wait for the senator from M-M to call for nominations.

ESB is not currently a senator (or even a citizen).

Re ESB, tells you all what you need to know re my current level of activity in Talossa. I nominate Glüc, too. - GV, Fiova
Come on Senators, we need a majority to approve of the nomination for Mencei (or otherwise nominate someone else).
