Cabinet Vote

[CornMaster]

We are going to host our first ever Cabinet Only vote.

(Well...second if you include the Civ 2/Civ 3 vote we had when the game started)

It is going to be on several issues.

Ohwell's proposal.
Duck's multiple proposals.
Pellaken's proposals.
My proposals.

I will PM the questions to all the cabinet members and governors. (no deputies) then I'll post the results when everything is tabulated.

 

[CornMaster]

All the PM's are out. Voting on 6 proposals.

2 votes are back. 6 still out standing.

Any proposal that is voted on and passed, will then be voted on by the people to determine final action. If it passes, it's passed and becomes rule. Otherwise....gone.

I've also updated the rules. Any new rule will be underlined from now on.

 

[CornMaster]

Another vote is in.... CM, AoA, Pellaken, ACM and Ohwell have all voted.
Dell19, Kev, and ES are still out.

With 5 votes in....we have 0 ties in our 6 proposals....interesting.

2 have been rejected
2 have been passed
2 have to be voted on...but have had options eliminated.

So far.....

 

[Pellaken]

I've now voted.

can anyone propose Cabinet votes? I dont have any ideas for such a vote, and never have, but I am curious as to weather its prez-only power, or weather any Cabinet member can do so.

 

[CornMaster]

Well.....thus far it's only been used twice.....and twice by me. I was Vice Pres and Pres.

But I ALWAYS consulted other cabinet members before such a vote. The only reason I see using it is if it is used for votes such as these.....where we have a WHOLE bunch of suggestions, and need to do some weeding before presenting to the people.

The other vote was to decide Civ 2 or Civ 3....which was a MAJOR decision that was going NO WHERE when it came to voting by the players....

But I'd like to reserve cabinet votes to a Presidental Thing only....of course if some cabinet members WANT a cabinet vote....please PM or ICQ, MSN, AIM, Y! me and we can discuss it. (Or the future president)

Hey, I am the science minister, doesn't that mean that I am part of the cabinet? Or is this something else?
