I like the fancy titles, but I don't think we should make them official unless the Northeast as a whole agrees to it. Is there a way to tie this to a referendum?

I think we'd have to do a constitutional amendment to make them "official", Goldwater.

Something along the lines of "All instances of Governor in the NE constitution are hereby replaced with Warden of the North". Not sure if that's worth it, but if we want to make the names official, it would probably be a better course of action than to pass something like this.

I will vote for this if it makes it to a final vote, but I'm willing to hear other ideas.

So, doesn't that make this resolution unconstitutional? Unless the "official norm" part means that this won't actually be enforced, in which case it's pointless because it won't actually chance anything.

You're probably correct; even if we passed this, I could easily see this resolution being ruled unconstitutional. At this point, we should either consider amending the constitution or ditch this resolution and continue to use the themed names on our own accord.

I support an amendment, but if the people reject it (or rather don't support it enough *cough*CapitalRelocationAmendment*cough*) I'd be fine with simply using them as an informality.

Please don't turn the Northeast into the second coming of the IDS empire.

I've been sick over the weekend, so sorry for not having the chance to speak about this.

It's not worth it to me to go through amending the constitution and all of that, so I'd rather just continue using them informally.

Withdrawn.
