This is a poll to decide whether to ratify my constitutional amendment proposal limiting all people to one Executive office or Justice of the Court, to prevent people from having multiple Council votes and to prevent someone from gaining too much power in our current government, as well as to keep the Justice of the Court as unbiased as possible. It should be noted that any person may hold multiple Ambassador positions or temporary positions such as Governor, Judge Advocate, or Public Defender under this proposal and may hold the above positions in conjunction with an Executive office.
I believe that a quorum of 10 affirmative votes is required to ratify this amendment, as it was half the vote total (rounded up) during the mid-term Presidential election and the previous full-term elections had fewer votes than the amount reached by the mid-term Presidential election. Vander, feel free to correct me if the quorum is incorrect. This poll will time out naturally in 14 days if quorum is not met. Relevant discussion may be found here.
Here is the text of the proposed amendment, changes to our current Constitution (the addition of D.8 and F.1) are written in bold.
