Mideast Assembly Thread

[Cassius]

I also support Spiral for the Speakership.

[PPT Spiral]

I accept the nominations.

[Potus]

I submit myself for the confirmation process for Mideast Regional Senator.

JCL, that's not how this works....remain calm....don't do anything stupid....security!

[TJ in Oregon]

I am appointing Hifly and DC al Fine to fill the vacancies left by Spiral and Cassius to the Mideast Assembly. Thank you for all those who applied; it was a tough decision.

The Lt. Governor appointment will be announced later, most likely this evening.

[TJ in Oregon]

Can we have nominations for Speaker?

[Hifly]

I nominate DC al Fine for Speaker.

[Hifly]

Oh FFS. Lets just assume DC is now speaker so TJ please bring forth a budget.

[DC Al Fine]

I'll do it if no one else volunteers.

[TJ in Oregon]

We already have a budget on the floor from when Spiral was Speaker. I will propose some changes shortly, but the way I understand it, the old proposition is still on the floor.

[TJ in Oregon]

I have appointed Tmthforu94 as Lt. Governor. Please open a thread for his confirmation as soon as feasible.

[Franzl]

I'm fine with DC as Speaker.

[Hifly]

The speaker seems to have taken a vacation, so therefore I nominate myself as a temporary speaker until the next elections.

[Hifly]

Seeing no objection, the motion is carried.

Hey folks, can we get started with the new session?

[PPT Spiral]

Sure.

The 37th session of the Mideast Assembly is now called to order. We shall have nominations for Speaker for the next 48 hours.

[Mechaman]

I nominate Spiral

[PPT Spiral]

I accept the nomination.

With no other nominations called, I request unanimous consent that Spiral be elected Speaker.

[PPT Spiral]

Seeing no objection, the motion carries, and Spiral is elected Speaker.

Legislation may now be introduced.

1 minute?

[PPT Spiral]

1 minute?

When Inks was Speaker, I recall that he always did it like this. In fact, he often waited less than a minute. In any case, I doubt that there would be any objections to me being Speaker in the Assembly.

Of course not, but that would be better to avoid illegality .

There is no illegality. The 24 hours is up and Spiral was the only Assemblyman nominated. He doesn't have to give any time for objection at all. We have no constitutional provision or statute that dictates otherwise.
