Their is no vote.
Whichever citizen of Talossa may have the Confidence of the House of Shepherds shall be appointed without delay by the Constable to serve as the Governor of Florencia; but, before he enter upon the powers and duties of the office, the Governor-designate shall sing the provincial anthem as his oath of office in witness of the Constable at least.
Since a majority is now in Confidence with the nomination, you shall appointed without delay by the you the Constable..

In accordance with our Constitution, the authority to appoint a Governor does not rest with the Chamber, but with the Cunstaval.
It is therefore your responsibility, in your capacity as the Crown's representative, to fully assume this duty. If the responsibility entrusted to you by the King proves too burdensome — which I can understand — it is incumbent upon you to step aside from your office and request that the King act directly.
The fact remains that the individual you have appointed does not enjoy the confidence of the Chamber. This is an established fact that cannot be disregarded.
Accordingly, it falls to you to identify and appoint another candidate for the office of Governor who is capable of securing the confidence of the Chamber, in keeping with both the spirit and the letter of our Constitution.
Yours faithfully,
Mximo Carbonèl
Actually from my understanding of the constitution it is only the crowns responsibility to intervene if the Nimlet cannot recommend a candidate to be sworn in, on their own, therefore the responsibility lies with the Nimlet, especially as you hold the majority of the seats

Quote from: mximo on February 06, 2026, 09:56:27 PMFollowing consultations with the members of my party, and in particular with my Prime Minister, I am unable at this time to offer my support to the governor appointed by our Representative of the Crown.
In accordance with Section 7 of our Constitution, which states:
"Whichever citizen of Talossa may have the Confidence of the House of Shepherds shall be appointed without delay by the Constable."
In light of this provision, I respectfully request that an alternative appointment be considered. The Representative of the Crown is empowered to appoint a citizen from another province, and Section 7 further outlines the parameters governing such appointments.
Accordingly, I will be voting against the motion of confidence concerning the governor appointed earlier this week, whith all the seats I hold.

As representative of the Crown
We hereby appoint
Mximo Carbonèl
As interim Governor of Florencia,
Until this is either confirmed by the Nimlet or a formal vote of the Nimlet proposes an elected Governor.
As an aside, we advise the Nimlet to fix the issues with the constitution of Florencia in order to avoid the Crown having to step in, in the future as it is beneath the dignity of the crown to step into political issues such as this.
Antaglha Xhenerös Somelieir
Cunstaval of Florencia
I want to thank the Cunstaval for acting and ask for advice. The Florencian Constitution forbids someone from being both Senator and Governor. Has Mximo Carbonel resigned as Senator or are we planning to ignore our province's constitution?
Part of Section 7 of the Constitution:QuoteThe office of the Governor of Florencia shall be also incompatible with the Sovereign, that of the Constable, that of any judicial official of the province or Talossa, and that of any Senator, whether for Florencia or another Talossan province...

Well, your suggested language doesn't quite work. But how about
"2. The King may appoint a Cunstaval (or Constable) for any Province to exercise these powers on his behalf. A province may pass laws setting a term of office for its Cunstaval, specifying who is disqualified from the role, and assigning the Cunstaval a role in their government. Unless otherwise fixed by national or provincial statute, the term of office shall be three years. No person shall be at the same time Cunstaval of one province and the leader of the provincial government of that same province."
Ok with the same province that should same/another province.
Or just "no person shall at the same time be a Cunstaval of one province and the head/leader of provincial government of any province"
So one thing I'd point out is that we're going to run into at least some practical problems if we say that people can't be cunstaval of another province and a provincial government leader in their province at the same time. At least two cunstavais would have to resign, I think, because we'd need a total of sixteen significantly active citizens with space for that responsibility.
This isn't an impossible problem, but I just don't see why someone like Sir Ian can't be Maritiimi-Maxhestic's Grand General Secretary while also serving as cunstaval for Maricopa.
You are aware that this argument goes against your original proposed language? As the law already makes being a Cunstaval and provincial government head illegal. Your original language does the same.
My proposed amendment is to just ensure that same standard is applied if the Cunstaval should one day be appointed from their home province that they can't serve as head of government in their home province either as Cunstaval.
So what you're arguing for here goes against even your original proposal.
What I want is not to have this kind of language at all. But we've gotten steadily more and more restrictive, and now we're walling people off from holding any kind of cunstaval position or provincial lead position at the same time, instead of getting to choose to combine them (current law possibility and current draft possibility) or have people hold those positions in different places (new draft possibility).
It's hard to imagine even a problem here, since no province has anything in place that could make this stuff problematic. Since the whole point is to open up some possibilities here and eliminate the military governorship, maybe we could just pick either one or the other, and not make both illegal? I'm very much a "worst case scenario" planner, but what's the actual danger? In order to abuse any power in this position, someone would need to get their province on-board and the king.
