Two things:

I think the issue Nix is referring to is that seniority is decided by the time stamp on the swearing in thread, and, as that measures to the second, it's very very unlikely that two senators swear in at the same time.

It's a very good idea to change the expulsion section, but I'm not clear either why the president of the senate when they're a senator don't get a vote, and, even if they're not, don't get to participate. I'm also not sure why a senator needs to hire an attorney, or what the attorney would do.

Well as Talleyrand says, due to the way the forum works there has to be one post after another even if they were sent at the same time, so we can just put a sentence along the lines of "Seniority shall be determined by the length of continuous service" to the first mention of it, which is in Article II Section II

Windjammer's right here. Whatever else we do here (and I don't want to get too involved, this not really being about me) we need to change the expulsion part, because it refers exclusively to an office that no longer exists.
