[Sir Lüc]

Friendly reminder that, pursuant to Standing Rule 1.1, the Senate is not in session until the Chancery has published final results for the seats of Atatürk, Cézembre and Vuode; therefore, a vote for Mençei cannot take place until then, as neither a new term has begun, nor the position is vacant.

[mximo]

I will be elected sooner rather than later.  ;-)

Election for Mençei can now be organised then ?

That is correct. Senator Valcadac'h is now Acting Mençei. The Senate seats for Atatürk and Vuode are vacant.

Hey hey,

Has Chancery published results for Atatürk, Cézembre and Vuode?

Yes: https://wittenberg.talossa.com/index.php?msg=33083, made final eight days ago: https://wittenberg.talossa.com/index.php?msg=33344

However, as of now, the seats for Atatürk and Vuode are still vacant pending payment of the winner's fee.

[Sir Lüc]

Popping in again to notify the Senate that you guys have a full roster again. You guys may want to officially get the Mençei election started now.

I'd like to run for the position of Mençei, firstly because it is good that this position is not given to the overwhelming majority party in the Senate, and secondly because I can easily access to the "ç" letter on my french keyboard.

No winner's fee = No Senäts

We cannot start the Mencei voting thread de jure yet.

But below, someone states a winner's fee has not been received for one of the races.  By Talossan, until that seat's winner pays their fee, that Senäts seat if vacant.

We *cannot* have a Mencei race until all fees are paid, right?

GV, Acting Mencei

[Þon Txoteu É. Davinescu, O.SPM]

I hereby nominate myself for Mencei and furthermore a vote for myself.

That is not what anyone stated in that thread. If anything, we're wondering why the fee for the Senator for Atatürk appears to have been paid twice.

The Chancery has officially seated all Senators-elect as all fees have been paid. No seats are vacant.

We *cannot* have a Mencei race until all fees are paid, right?

With the proviso that all fees ARE paid, technically no - as per standing rule 2.3, you could have opened nominations for Mençei as early as April 13, when the term began, even though two seats were still vacant back then:

Rule 3.2 The Acting Mençei shall allow for nominations to be lodged for a period of at least a week from the beginning of a term.[...]

[Sir Lüc]

I hereby nominate myself for Mencei and furthermore a vote for myself.

Davinescu

The nomination is in order but the vote cannot yet be cast, as before voting there is a nomination process of one week, as per that same first sentence of Rule 2.3 which I quoted above. (Besides, there's high likelihood it will be a ranked vote, again as per the remainder of Rule 2.3, since there are multiple nominees)

[Sir Lüc]

To avoid confusion and scattered posting, I'm locking this thread and redirecting Senators to the other thread opened by the Acting Mençei: https://wittenberg.talossa.com/index.php?topic=4025
