I'm nominating myself for both Speaker and Deputy Speaker. If I get elected to the Speakership I'm obviously taking the Speaker position; but if I don't I'll serve in the lower position.

2.) On the Monday before the Friday after a legislative election, the Dean of the Chamber shall start a 24-hour nominating period for Speaker and Deputy Speaker, followed by a 48-hour vote on these positions. In the event of a tie, the Governor shall appoint an Acting Speaker to serve until the tie is resolved, or until a new Chamber is elected.
It seems as though Santander and Classic's nominations are past the time limit. As such, TimTurner has been thirded for Speaker and diptheriadan has been seconded for Speaker. No one recieved a second for Deputy Speaker nomination.
No hard feelings please. Tongue

Seems like an accurate interpretation of the Chamber rules.

We should probably vote for Speaker now and then hold nominations followed by a vote for Deputy Speaker, after.

Historically, nominees haven't needed to be seconded.

I would like to thank my fellow delegates for electing me Speaker, and I would like to wish diptheriadan well. Hopefully me and Dipper can work on some bills together.

I'm opening nominations for deputy speaker. This is more or less a rerun required by the fact no one was seconded last time.
