Fixing the Voting Crisis

Post by Allot »

g. Nobles-Equestrian shall be granted two votes, and Nobles-Civitas shall be granted one vote. The Patron of Kalir has no votes but may overturn or support a Council decision regardless of the votes provided that his powers are not limited by a previous Council decision (i.e. impeachment).
What's a reasonable new system? Remember, we still want there to be tiers, it's not like we're building an egalitarian society or anything. :evil

Sufficient?

Another change:
(1) A governing legislative council shall be established, which shall be called the Council of Eliria.
a. The Council of Eliria shall constitute an assembly of the resident Members of the House of Kalir, who shall each be Nobles or Commoners;
b. Commoners shall be admitted to the Council as House Commoners.

(2) The Council shall be generally Presided over by His Grace the Patron of the House, or by any appointed Steward, or by the Proposer of a Proposal, but not by the Petitioner of a Petition;
(3) The Council of Eliria shall advise the Patron of the House on all matters and affairs of government relating to the territories under the jurisdiction of the House;
a. Any person so presiding (a "Presiding Member") shall not be prohibited from fulfilling all other duties and privileges of a Member.
b. Any Presiding Member may conduct a roll-call from time-to-time to ascertain the presence of Members.

That's 2/4. We need one more to make it official. Iskander, show yourself! Or Aryeztur...

Iskander, Aryeztur & Harald ought to be expelled if they fail to show up to vote for this. Just a thought.

Okay, an Iskander is having permissions difficulties (that's Ari's department) as well as Harald being un-jarled.

So basically the Jarl of Parvatvana is a dead man. Happy days.

Not especially - but the need for a public crucifixion has passed.

Once the Steward has declared the vote over, the change shall be assented to.

Vote is over, crisis averted. Although you are perfectly allowed to preside over the Council yourself, Your Grace.
