Following the passage of NS 300-4, the New Republica South Senator is tasked with a new portfolio of overseeing the Great Debate Hall and debates in elections. Specifically, the act reads:
Record Number: NS 300-4
1. The Senator for New Republica South shall be responsible for running and promoting debates and straw polls, with questions of their own and/or questions solicited from the broader community, including:
[...]
C. Straw polls for delegate, with results posted prior to the opening of delegate candidate declarationsPurpose
The Delegate Straw Poll is designed to inform potential Delegate candidates about whether or not there is interest in them running for office. To achieve this goal, the Delegate Straw Poll is opened in advance of Delegate declarations and results will be provided several days before Delegate declarations open to give potential candidates time to decide if they wish to run.
Methodology
All 10000 Islands citizens registered on the forum are eligible to participate in the straw poll. To effectively notify potential voters, I am sending a forum Personal Message to all persons with WA 10000 Islander, TITO Member, or TITO Knight masking who have been active on the forum in the past five days. I have also sent a forum Personal Message to all current members of the Council of Nine and TITO Command. If you are a 10000 Islands citizen but were not active on the forum in the past five days, or otherwise did not receive a message, you are welcome to send a PM to Dokansia to vote.
Each citizen may vote for up to three candidates. You should vote for any individuals you believe would make a good 10000 Islands WA Delegate and that you would like to see run for office. You vote by sending a PM to Dokansia directly (likely responding to the PM you received) listing your choices. I will not disclose individual voters' ballots to others. You may not vote for yourself.
You may only vote for eligible candidates as defined by NS 29-1. The requirements are:
1) Minimum of 10 TITO Battle Stars
2) Minimum of 50 forum posts
TITO Members can find current battle star counts in the private war records. If you are a non-TITO Member and are unsure if a candidate has 10 Battle Stars, you are welcome to query me. Note that all Knights of TITO are eligible as they have reached 50 Battle Stars.
Straw Poll voting will close after eight days on 3/2. Ballots received after midnight pacific time on Tuesday the 2nd will not be counted. Results will be posted as soon as convenient thereafter. Results will include the total number of votes for each nation that received votes and the total number of ballots submitted. Results will not include who voted for which nation.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask in this thread or via PM to Dokansia .
