EDIT: Matt's going through some personal, real life issues right now, so he won't be running (so consider this kind of an LOA in his stead). I don't want to pick a Lieutenant Governor just yet because I don't want to shut someone who wants to run out of the Speakership.

Do you want me/can I open the nomination as Speaker as outgoing LG, or am I already gone?

If we're nominating for speaker - I'll nominate Blair. He seems willing to do it and it should bring stability to the Assembly.

Thanks Clyde. I accept the nomination for speaker, and would be happy to carry out the role

Since I wrote the current rules on the Speakership election I thought I'd chime in to help.

If Matt is the longest continually serving representative (as I believe he is, but correct me if I am wrong), he can preside over the election.  If he's on a LOA, then the second longest continually serving member can preside over the election.

The second longest continuing serving member would be Blair since I believe he was the only other representative serving just before the election. So I guess that would be for him to open the 24 hour nomination process for speaker (and nominate himself).

Haha it feels slightly Nixon like having to open my own election.

Since Matt has been given a LOA submitted through Governor Sawx I hereby open the nomination Process. It will last for 24 hours

Clyde has nominated me, and I accept.

24 hours has now passed, and since no other names have been nominated I hereby declared that Blair has been elected as Speaker to the Northeast Assembly, and shall assume the position as of now

Does that feel awkward, Representative Blair declares Representative Blair as Speaker Blair?  Smiley

Ok. Nominations for Speaker are open for 24 hours (until 8:30 PM on April 1).

(On the topic of speaker, Matt should be the temporary Speaker, but considering he's on a LOA, I'm not sure who has the position currently, considering seniority for Clyde and Winfield are equal for the current term.)

In the Senate it is who swore in first.

If only one person is nominated, there is no need for a vote.  That person is automatically named Speaker.
