Midwest Constitutional Amendments

[GMantis]

For a long time, I have intended to amend the Constitution of the Midwest, in order to remove certain clauses, which in my opinion harmed democracy and put our region in a bad light. For various reasons I have been unable to do so until now. Seeing that midwestern citizens have now requested an amendment dealing with similar issues, I have realized that I cannot delay any longer. Therefore the following amendment proposals will be placed on the ballot next Friday, the 29th of May:

Amendment I:
Section I, Article II, Clause I is amended to read as follows:
The election of the ilikeverin shall take place on the third weekend of the months of April, August and December on the Gregorian calendar. The election will begin on the Friday of that weekend, and will end one week later.

Amendment II:
Section I, Article II, Clause II is hereby repealed.

Amendment III:
To Section I, Article III is added Clause V, to read as follows:
In case of the ican'tbelieveit'snotverinship falling vacant, a special election will be held on the next weekend, under the rules of the regular election.

Amendment IV: 
Section II, Article I, Clause VI is amended to read as follows:
Voting shall be held by the means of Instant-runoff Voting

Amendment V:
The twenty-fourth Amendment is hereby repealed.

Here is the current constitution of the Midwest:

As the amendment proposed by Jas and my second amendment concern the same clause, they shall be grouped together on the ballot.
You may post here any suggestions or criticisms to my proposals.

I prefer Jas' version, but this is better than the current state of affairs.

Well, fortunately you're not the only voter

Yes, yes, yes, yes, and yes

[ilikeverin]

I like approval voting

At the very least it allows us to use our regional smilies in the voting booth

I like approval voting

But it permits candidates to be elected without an absolute majority.

All excellent reforms, I commend you ilikeverin GMantis.

[Јas]

I commend the ilikeverin for finding his drafting quill and sincerely hope this marks the beginning of regular legislative contributions from Belle Fourche.

I don't, however, commend this...

Amendment V:
The twenty-fourth Amendment is hereby repealed.
