Code:
Article E. Legislative Branch

The Legislative Branch will be formed of one House of the People and an Advisory
Council. 
      
       	1.The House of the People will be formed of the entirety of the
          citizenry and is responsible for the drafting of new Laws and
          Amendments to the Constitution.
		a.The House will present all proposed Articles, Amendments
                  and Laws to the Judicial Branch for review.
	2.The Advisory Council will be formed of the Provincial Governors.
                 They will advise the citizens of the state of their individual
                 provinces, any concerns there may be for said provinces,
                 and enumerate any goals they envision for their provinces. 
          	a.Each Governor shall determine any policies and procedures
                 needed to carry out their duties.
	   	b.Governors are responsible for the care, management,
                 use of the cities, and use of lands of a province through the
                 setting of build queues, allocation of laborers on tiles,
                 population rushes and drafting of citizen soldiers.

This Article does not exist in the current Constitution, so there is no replacement language to consider.

This poll will be open for 96 hours, after which it will considered Ratified or Defeated.
 
YES. I like it. :D
 
this makes no mention of a senate, only a council of governors, this is unacceptable in my view...a Senate MUST be added to any legislative body in order to protect the national purse....this cannot be done by the same house that is mentioned in this article...furthermore a senate would be useful in that it could issue national demands of the governors thereby directly uniting the nation in important tasks through proclamations of the Senate...furthermore i point out that while a Senate would probably bother some of the ministers because they would have to ask for money for thier projects i also point out it could help them through thier authority to order things to happen

therefore the answer to this proposal MUST be NO
 
Well, you had your chance for days and days and days to comment on this in the discussion thread.
 
unfortunately i missed that, was busy with other things, i can still vote it down now though...nothing against the general idea but i do believe in a Senate and i cannot sacrifice a belief just because i or anyone else screwed up...

Sorry, (getting off my high horse). Sometimes I forget people have real lives. :blush:
 
as it appears that your proposal here looks like its gonna pass overwhelmingly i might have to start thinking about how to get an ammendment made that would include the senate...

You need to start a discussion thread in the Citizens Forum and see if you can garner enough support.

don't we still need 18 more yes votes in order to get Quorom?

As of this time, I believe you are right.

I once again urge all citizens to vote YES on this Article.
 
yes! until something like this is passed, we have no governors or provinces
we need about another 10 yes votes tho, because of the high census
 
10 More YES votes, people. Let's get this thing passed. :thumbsup:
 
Wait a minute. What's the census?

Whatever it is, we really need to reach it. I would like to have a legal job and give legal instructions to the president.
 
Yes! Only 6 more YES votes to go, and a day and a half to get there.
