The suggested words need "and appoint" (or something) adding which will then allow for a confirmation poll.
A simple way may just be to open up nominations for a bit longer, as several people were under the impression that CT had accepted and were happy to let her take the reins. They may have been willing to step forward if it would prevent the office being vacant.
