Greetings, new Underhusen! Now that the election is finally over, we need to go about the business of selecting a new Speaker. Over the next 48 hours, please post here if you are interested in standing for Speaker...afterwards we will have a 48 hour election to determine who it will be unless only one person stands. :)

I suppose I'll accept then, considering that my legislative goals are almost basically everyone else's combined together

I also nominate @Pengu, to continue his unfinished work from the previous term

And I'll accept in the spirit of elections.

I'll shoot a vote to Tau.

Title: Nominations for Speaker
Post by: Laurentus on October 09, 2017, 08:15:09 PM

I'll go for Tau.

Hmm... this one's tough. It would make sense to have Pengu as speaker to finish what he started, but I think either of the other two could do the same things. I'll vote for Pengu because I don't know yet if Tau or Laurentus would be good speakers. I don't know as much about Laurentus, and while Tau seems like he'd be a great speaker, I'd rather wait until next time to decide about that.

Laurentus has been Speaker before, and he's done an excellent job with it.  The reason I picked Tau is because I don't believe he's been Speaker before, and I think he'd do a great job in the role.

Seconded. It's good to give a bunch of people the experience, to future proof the system.

As both Pengu and Laurentus seem to be mainly running for the sake of election, I will Abstain.

Ill vote for Pengu, sice Lau wont win if I vote for him. He would be my first choice, though, he has been gone a while and I feel like hopefully being Speaker would help get things swinging. Honestly, all the candidates are capable and would be great.

Post by: Michi on October 10, 2017, 11:09:04 AM

So that would make it a tie since Tau abstained.  What happens now? :o

How about Co-Speakers?

Title: Nominations for Speaker
Post by: Laurentus on October 10, 2017, 12:31:15 PM

Don't suppose anyone would like to withdraw their candidacy or votes?

Title: Nominations for Speaker
Post by: Mathyland on October 10, 2017, 12:38:43 PM

I'd like to change my vote to Tau because I like what Pengu and Lau said after my first vote.
