Senate Resolution Calling for a Constitutional Convention.

[Bono]

Nay.

[MAS117]

The midwest and pacific governors should be raising hell about being under represented.

Thats what happens when you only have 25 voters comapred to something like 50 that i have.

[JohnFKennedy]

The midwest and pacific governors should be raising hell about being under represented.

The Pacific has the same number of delegates as the Mid-East and the South-Eastern Regions so I fail to see why they would be angry. The Mid-West has almost nobody in it so they aren't really either.

it means the northeast can trample the rights of the midwest at will.

Not on its own it can't. The North-Eastern Region has seven delegates out of a total of seventeen, the other regions could trample on the North-East if they joined together as could the regions by going against any of them, I fail to see your point?

I agree with the distuinguished Senator from California.

[King]

What system will be used to ratify a new constitution?

[Nym90]

Yea

[Gabu]

Yea.

I don't know how I missed voting until now.  Apologies for that.

[Filuwaúrdjan]

Aye

[Peter]

What system will be used to ratify a new constitution?

The Convention will doubtless decide that by putting an appropriate clause/section into the Constitution itself. To date I've left that issue undecided in my draft because I think there are several ways for it to be done.

[Siege40]

Yea.

[JohnFKennedy]

With six votes in favour to one against the resolution has passed.

I believe it calls for the first meeting to be the seventeenth of January so I hope the Governors can get picking on delegates!

[True Federalist (진정한 연방 주의자)]

It also specifies that the President is to call for the Convention.

[JohnFKennedy]

It also specifies that the President is to call for the Convention.

Yes it does I know he has to do that, as does he I believe, oh and to correct my earlier statement it says the first meeting should be by the seventeenth.

[WMS]

For the record, even though it already passed: Yea.

[minionofmidas]

Why are some governors picking alternate delegates? No alternate delegates mentioned here.

[True Federalist (진정한 연방 주의자)]

Well, I picked an alternate, because I hadn't had the chance to confirm all of my choices by the time I made the announcement.

[minionofmidas]

Yeah, ILV picked two alternates as consolation prizes because some people were disappointed he picked only two leftists. Which I can understand (the disappointment, not the consolation prizes.)

[12th Doctor]

I seem to remember voting on this, but I guess I was wrong.

Yea
