I would be willing to submit an amicus curiae brief, should it please the "court".

[homelycooking]

cinyc,

The Northeast Constitution requires those elected in a regular election to be seated on the Tuesday after the conclusion of the vote, as well as for the election results to be declared the Monday after:

As I may have been elected, I would respectfully request that you release the results of the election
as soon as possible, so that I and others might know what the electorate has decided.

Thank you, cinyc.

Is Winfield permitted by law to hold two offices (Lieutenant Governor and Assemblyman), or will he be forced to choose one or the other?

[homelycooking]

cinyc, have you come to a decision on the possible election of Redcommander?

Notice of Special Northeast Election:

There is ONE vacancy in the Northeast Assembly, caused by the decision of Lt. Governor Winfield to take that post instead of his Assembly seat.  

Because I only certified the last other elected member of the Assembly today, a voting booth to fill the vacancy will be opened next Friday, July 1 at 12:00:00AM and shall remain open until the end of the day Sunday, July 3 at 11:59:59pm Eastern time.

Candidates who wish to have their name placed on the special election ballot shall declare their intention to run in the special election on the Candidate Declaration Thread before 12:00:00 Eastern time on Thursday, June 30.

cinyc, since you didn't open this at the time you said you would, does that mean the special election must be postponed for a week?

[homelycooking]

Winfield, that voting booth you set up could very easily be challenged as an illegal one, since it was not opened on a Friday.

Due to constitutional concerns, I will invalidate the Speaker election in the Assembly, and call for a new Speaker election, and we will wait until ALL MEMBERS have voted.  I don't know how long we will have to wait for ALL MEMBERS to vote, but we will take our chances.

Look, I know this is going to be a major delay to make sure that the Speaker has a majority of all the Representatives' votes, but again, that is what the law requires us to do. We don't have to wait until all members have voted, but we do have to wait until one candidate wins three votes - a majority.

neither of which elicited any protest from Napoleon.

As to the Write-in Votes Act, Napoleon only would have protested if Winfield decided to support my bill.

If I didn't know how Winfield would break the tie, I would threaten a lawsuit.

And we're back to square one again, because none of us are permitted to open a voting booth besides cinyc. The legislation I introduced to permit the Governor or Lieutenant Governor to open  a voting booth had to be withdrawn because it was constitutionally objectional.

The Governor is already legally able to, hence our perfectly legal string of special elections.

Oh, right. Well, then, where is he?
