Mr. Speaker, would the Gubernatorial special elections amendment be on the ballot this Friday or in December?  I believe it should probably be on Friday's ballot because it technically passed before Saturday, but it was not declared passed by you until a few hours later.

At your discretion Governor.  Though, if you want to go by the official declaration, I'm sure we won't need to worry about a special election for Governor so soon?..

Senator Simfan, by the way, I truly appreciate your input in the Legislation Introduction Thread, but only representatives or the governor may do so. If you so wish, one of us would gladly introduce it for you.

IIRC, citizens may present legislation for consideration, but the bill needs a second signature before it can be brought to the floor.

That is correct, and I'm usually more than willing to sign off on a bill for a citizen whether I'm in agreement, disagreement, or indifferent.  Unfortunately, we rarely have citizen participation in regional government.  So Please!  PM me if you want a signature

I might be leaving today to pick up a bike in Boston.  Just waiting for another quote for shipping costs.  So, if I'm off abruptly over the weekend, the Lt. Governor will need to close debates.
