Quote from: Breneir Tzaracomprada on August 08, 2024, 03:59:27 PMThanks to the party leaders for their assignments. Now that all seats have been assigned we can officially convene the XXII (22nd) session of the Nimlet of Florencia.

Our first order of business is a vote of confidence in the current Governor, Breneir Tzaracomprada. This vote will run for a week from today ending on August 15th at 15:58 TST. Or until all votes have been received and a motion to close voting has been approved.

Voting is now open.

Current vote tally

Breneir Tzaracomprada- Per (4 votes)
Mximo Carbonel - No vote yet (1 vote)
Acafat del Val - No vote yet (1 vote)
Zilect Uómbat Firă- Aus (1 vote)

Voting closed some time ago. With 4 votes yes, 1 vote of abstention, and 2 failures to vote. I am reconfirmed as Governor of Florencia.

The floor is open for legislative proposals.
And the inevitable tumbleweeds.

Shoulda new thread be made for any proposed resolutions or laws?

For the past few sessions we've kept all Nimlet business in one thread but I'm happy to create a new thread, if you like.

I just realized the final sentence of 2024-03 doesn't specify the name of the holiday, and should be amended to read:

2024-03:
Nacho (Average) Holiday Resolution

Whereas Florencia is the Nacho-shaped Province;

Amended as requested. I plan to celebrate the day with Sweet Chili Heat Doritos.

I just realized my vote came AFTER the official conclusion of the voting period and is therefore invalid. My apologies for my forgetting to vote. All bills pass with 1 vote in favor by Shepherd Zilect and no votes by myself, Mximo Carbonel, or Acafet dal Val.

The bills will be entered into the record. And the floor is now open for additional business.

I based the number on just under half voter turnout from the last election. I'm open to amending this.

Thank you, Zilect. I'm okay with seeing how it goes now that it is law. If it turns out that the threshold is too low we can always come back to it.
