So what? The game changes. We don't need to preserve a practice if it no longer serves any purpose. Which is why I'm asking: What purpose does recognizing parties serve?

For the purposes of balloting and other necessities: is the RG supposed to rely on a shoddy network of self-organized labels when determining what party to list someone on the ballot as?

And I've in the past proposed requiring candidates that weren't in organized parties to have to petition for ballot access. It didn't pass but it doesn't mean it should be constitutionally prohibited for the future.

"Which, as of now, is what this amendment addresses"

Ok, pal. You asked and I answered. Perhaps you should be more refined next time.

I'm done here, this is just contrarian nonsense

Abstain

5 is a more appropriate number and would be easier to remember. 7 just seems...odd.

What purpose do 5 person political parties serve? To be classified as major parties at least? Usually, parties are organized to win elections, and you can't win much with 5 voters.

So why are we voting on this amendment? Seems like its just delay for the sake of delay from an undistinguished senator...

Well, I doubt Spiral could distinguish himself more than missing FORTY PERCENT OF THE VOTES in the last session like you did.
