Look at the law I cited. It says the runner-up becomes Senator.

Or was your point that tmth conceded his seat, and that the Officepark appointment was illegal? Smiley
If concession =/= vacancy, then yes.

You'd have huge problem to enforce it in Midwest, when I were elected anb then declined, since only runner-up, Svensson, already left for another region.

I propose getting rid of all of this concession nonsense altogether.

I oppose allowing the second place guy to take office. That's ridiculous.

Well that's a completely different law. It has nothing to do with what I've proposed. I'm just pointing it out since Shua brought it up.

And here yet another amendment I'm proposing... (changes in bold)

I hope some of the people opposed to the amendment we just passed will find this more compromising. The replacements must now be chosen after a party-wide vote, with the chair merely being the person who informs the government of the party's decision.

Since I'm the sponsor, the below amendments are friendly. Senators have 24 hours to object.

I'm going to oppose any party selections/appointments for vacant at-large seats. Period.

That's kind of a vague post. Neither of the amendments actually changes whether or not the party appoints the replacement, so I would assume you're not objecting... However, I'll wait for you to clarify just to be certain. Tongue

Both of the amendments have passed as friendly, then.

This has enough votes to pass. Senators have 24 hours to change their votes.
