I was disappointed to see Danihel Txechescu not being assigned any seats, despite being on the candidate list. What happened?

Each party gets to nominate ONE person.

What is the reasoning behind this interpretation?

Reluctantly, the seats of P are assigned to myself.

Thanks to Sir XPB for organising the election.

1. Iac Marscheir
2. Dixhet Fira

I'd like to register the Partisan Party (P) for the upcoming Etats elections.

Thank you.  May I list your name as associated with the Party on the ballot, or is there some other individual to name in this hybrid style of a party list?

Well my argument is really that according to the constitution " Each party will receive a number of
seats, equal to the number of high quotients it received.
Each party may divide its seats amongst Cézembrian
citizens as it sees fit.", so you could add my name to the ballot but then in my view I could still assign these seats to someone else (or reassign them if I were to resign as Mol'E), even if Im not planning to do so.

I'd like to register the Partisan Party (P) for the upcoming Etats elections.

Fwiw, I would strongly urge the coalition parties NOT to make any internal agreements on who should become Túischac'h, and any MCs to sign/nominate freely. This is one of those things any functioning democratic Cosa should decide for itself and it should not be decided for in shady backrooms.

For context, the way this works (I just looked it up and was very surprised) is that any MC can nominate someone, but nominations have to be countersigned by a majority of MCs before the nominee gets elected.

Also, you only get one nomination/countersignature, but it can be retracted and given to someone else. And we just keep playing this game until a majority occurs.

This is all in Lex H 21

So any takers on the above nomination?

Marcel makes a good point in discord.

I therefore nominate Marcel Eðo Pairescu Tafial as Túischac'h for the 56th Cosa term.

Like the general idea of this bill (though I do think some of the problems with legislating are cultural and shouldn't be fixed by binding rules). Will comment on some of the details later, except:

should there be certain exceptions? For example bills that don't affect law but exclusively contain appointments, non-binding recommendations to the government/King (Sense of the Ziu), foreign policy declarations, appropriations, setting up committees, may not always need to spend 30 days in committee.

And then of course, the blame of any future negative consquences rests not on people voting for a bad bill but on the people warning for these consquences not putting in hours of work to write a better one.

Yay, politics...

So basically, judges will now have full discretion to declare anything they dislike enough a crime as long as they can find some justification in the sixth amendment (which should be easy enough for most things)?

OH NO!

Edit: Ok, this was based on the bill at the top of thread. Apologies

11 seats to myself

Anyway, is there a rule that says a party can't nominate more than one candidate?

If not, the KLüP nominates Miestră Schivă, UrN and Dixhet Fira.

I nominate Glüc da Dhi S.H. for Seneschal

Since nobody responded to the KLüP contest I had been pondering how to best troll another party with our PM candidate, but whatever we do now it'd just be copying B. The KLüP seems to have lost its edge. Congrats Sir X. Pol, you win this time...

ugh, this is annoying :p
