Dardo I'll support your bill should you remove Article IV. Out
of a region of over two hundred less than one hundred are
actually on the forum. An even smaller number are on the forum
under there actual nation's name. I propose that we make Peunt
the permanent inspector of elections since he is the most
neutral. He will be in charge of making sure that the elections
are fair as well as being the collector of write-in ballots for
the 153 nations not on the forum. By only allowing a small
minority to vote you are discriminating against the majority of
our population. This goes inherently against your purpose stated
in the beginning of your bill. I understand the point you are
trying to make by saying that puppet nations can vote twice
should we have a write-in process, but your forget that this
problem is not solved on the forum. As I stated before, most
nations on there are not on there under the name of the actual
nation and it is not hard to create multiple profiles on the
forum. By only allowing a small minority to vote in elections
you are creating a voting oligarchy which goes against the
principles of New Republica. New Republica is based on the
concept of Freedom. One of the hallmarks of Freedom is freedom
of choice. You are inhibiting that freedom by forcing people to
join something that they have chosen not to do, for whatever
reason. Further, by only allowing a small minority to vote you
are inhibitng the potential activity of numerous nations, which
in the long term may force NR to shrink. I ask you to compromise
with me on this issue.
