The fact is, if we're going to have a bunch of polls on who gets to move workers, and other such ministry-based decisions, I figure we should first know what ministries we're going to have. We do have a poll on this already, but its pick-and-choose system does not seem too encouraging. We might end up without a domestic, but with three different people running financial. So I figured we should simply have a vote on the two proposals. Ravenfire's was essentially the same as Dave's so I left it out. If that one wins, I suppose a run off within the five ministry ones.
This poll will last five days. Quite long, seems to me, but that seems like the best number. The choice with the majority at the end of that period will win, and that basic system will be adopted (though things like control of the workers can be changed around as decided in those polls.) Note that people can see your choice, so if you've never been heard of you may be disqualified, especially if you voted against me. Lesson is: make your presence known.
To make things work best, each proposal's creator can defend his idea, pointed out why it should be chosen.

Newspeak names added to mine for the hell of it.
Other ideas can be proposed, though putting them into the poll seems like a hassel.
EDIT: I have remove the sections not pretaining to the ministers themselves, to clarify that this is not a vote on the articles, simply on the number of ministers (which takes up 90% of the articles). It doesn't even cover their entire jobs.
