Time for Elections?

[Sharpe]

By the Constitution we are required to have elections for President and the Ministers again.

However, since February was such a short month we should simply ask the current executive and Cabinet if they want to stay in their positions for another month and if so simply vote "yes" or "no" on the whole slate.

Otherwise if someone wants a change or can't commit to another month, have elections for those position(s) - I suggest a nomination period ending between March 2 (Sunday) and 5th (Wednesday) if we have any disputes or vacancies, and an election somewhere between March 3 (Monday) and 6th (Thursday) if necessary.

(No, this has absolutely nothing to do with the O2E dispute (honest !) )

As a reminder, here are those who have PTW and can serve as President or Vice President:

1) Jack_www
2) Vondrack
3) quantum_mechani
4) ZargonX
5) lmtoops
6) Colonel Kraken (is he still on team?)
7) Kloreep
8) Tiberius
9) Spiffor
10) redstar1
11) Sharpe

Looks like all of the active and non-observer members save Nimitz? (Or has that changed Nimitz? - or can someone find out so that I can stop updating this list )

[Kloreep]

IIRC, Colonel Kraken wants to just observe, so it's doubtful he'll run for anything; he is on the team, though. Spiffor seems to have vanished, but I'm sure he'll be back.

And I agree everyone should keep their old postions unless anyone runs for a position or wants to switch positions.

[Nimitz]

Yup still not got PtW, but I would like toi run for FM this term.

[redstar1]

I'm happy to let Nimitz take over as FM...

[ZargonX]

Sharpe, your plan sounds pretty good, though I think we should have everyone in office make an official statement as to whether they plan to stay in office or not; just for the records, of course

As for myself, barring any objections, I would like to continue on as Master Builder, though I declare ahead of time that this will be my final term, as I wish to move on into other aspects of governance in the future.

[vondrack]

Just for the record: I am willing and wishing to continue as the Prez.

[Tiberius]

I am willing to continue.

[Tiberius]

OK. It looks like except for the FA position, everybody else will keep its position. Agreed?

Redstar, do you want to continue? I'd support you to do that. Anyway, in this case, we shall decide it in a poll.

[redstar1]

I don't mind, Nimitz has been doing good work so I'm happy for him to take over as FAM if he likes...

[Tiberius]

I'd prefer a vote in this issue, but if you simply give it up, this is it.

[Nimitz]

I don't care you want a vote on the matter have a vote. But I am going for the FAM spot.
