Committee Membership Thread (Completed)

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

We will do this one at a time starting with mine. Senators desiring to a place on the committee should declare/be nominated here within the next 48 hours. If there are less then three, an extention of 24 hours will be granted.

Government Oversight and Reform Committee Members:
Senator NC Yankee
Senator Scott
Senator benconstine

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

Well this certainly collapsed after only three posts.


Yes, you can be on more then one committee, unless the language in your resolution specifies otherwise. Mine and Ben's didn't prohibit it and it has been over a week since I last examine yours and can't remember all the finer aspects except that it is far better written.

We are only doing the GOR committee write now. Only declare for that if your want to be on that one right now.

I am declaring for a position on the Gov't Oversight and Reform Committee.

So Scott, and myself. Ben do I interpret your post as a declaration for this committee?

Senators please vote for three of the above declared candidates for positions on the committee. This is a 48 hour vote.

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

Sorry for not making this clear, this isn't a preferential vote. You are voting for three different positions that are undistinguishable from one another. So the numbering is pointless. Just vote for three people who are sitting Senators.

With each nominee having received six votes atleast and no one has voted against them I am declaring the vote finished with and 8-0 result on each one and the Committee to be constituted with the following members, effective immediately:

Senator NC Yankee
Senator Scott
Senator benconstine

Congratulations, guys!

In order to reduce unnecessary threads be created we should select the chairmanship of this committee right here.

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

We do have a slight issue with the fact that two of the members here have their sights set on chairing other committees and the third one is running the Senate.

Since having two chairmanships being held by the same person was an issue of concern in one of the debates, and the PPT holding one wasn't raised, I take it that I am to chair this one, correct?

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

I think I missed Ben by a nano-second, damn I should have sent that PM sooner.

Well its his committee that will be delayed.

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

Committee members, we are now voting on the election of NC Yankee as Chair of the Government Oversight and Reform Committe, please vote Aye, Nay or Abstain.

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

Aye



Yankee is elected 3-0

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

Okay, onto the next Committee.


Declare your desire to be on the National Security Committee. Same rules apply as before and you have to declare so during this period. Previous postings of intent don't count.

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

Okay, time for a 48 hour vote to select the members. Vote for three of the following:

Declared Candidates:
[ ] Clarence
[ ] benconstine
[ ] AndrewPA
[ ] Redalgo
[ ] Other:

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

Declared Candidates:
[X] Clarence
[X] benconstine
[ ] AndrewPA
[X] Redalgo
[ ] Other:

Sorry Andy, like has been said too many good choices.

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

Ben is leading 7-0
Redalgo is leading 6-1
Clarence is leading 4-3
Andrew is leading 4-3


At this point Ben and Redalgo have won really.

The problem is going to come if all three of the remaining people vote for both Andy and Clarence.

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

...or if they cancel each other out. Looks like we may need a tiebreaker here.

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

Ben, Redalgo and Andrew (Rockin With Awesomeness in Three States Now) have been elected to the committee.



Who wants to chair this committee?

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

A vote is no open on the election of Ben as Chairman of the National Security Committee, members please vote Aye, Nay or Abstain.

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

Ben is elected Chairmen.


If you want to be on the Judiciary Committee thing please declare now.

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

This will last for 48 hours, by the way just like the others in case that needed mentioning.

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

The time has expired. Please vote for three of the following Senators.


Declared Candidates:
[  ] Senator TJ in Cleve
[  ] Senator Scott
[  ] Senator Seatown
[  ] Other:

I was driven off early by a storm yesterday and didn't get a chance to get back on.


The election ended on the sixth at 1:52 PM EST.

The results are as follows.
TJ in Cleve has won 6-0
Scott has won 6-0
Seatown has won 6-0

Redalgo and Andrews votes were cast after the election ended.

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

Scott has anounced his desire to seek the Chairmanship?


If Seatown and TJ can chime in either announcing or supporting Scott, we can then vote on the matter.

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

Members, the selection of Scott as chairman of the committee is now at vote, please vote Aye, Nay or Abstain.

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

I can end this when Seatown votes.

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

Scott has been elected chairman of the Judiciary Committee.
