Bill: Anarch Anakrousite Reform Bill - Vox Populi
Details
Submitted by[?]: Commonwealth Workers Army
Status[?]: passed
Votes: This bill asks for an amendement to the Constitution. It will require two-thirds of the legislature to vote in favor. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: June 2121
Description[?]:
| The Anarch Anakrousite Party suggests a rethink on the number of representatives present in the Senate... moving from the seemingly arbitrary current number (of 275), to a flat 500 seats... 100 seats for each of the 5 provinces... and also approximately 1 seat for each 100,000 Likatonian voters. Since each region will then be sending 100 representatives to the Senate, the AAP suggests we reform the 'algorithm' to 'equal representation from each region'. |

| Message | We are in favor. A larger government is, by nature, less efficient and anything which makes it less likely for the government to do something, means it is less likely for the government to do something wrong. |

| Message | we support this increase in representation, as likatonia currently has one of the lowest representative:voter ratios. We are less happy about the regional thing, as we think that everybody's vote should count equally, so more populated regions should get a larger share of the vote. However, we are still prepared to support as we did not reach this in time for it to be changed or split. |

| Message | Well, the AAP is always happy to reconsider at later dates. If the new algorithm isn't working, we will happily back a change in policy. The main thinking behind this was 500 seats for 50 million voters, spread over 5 provinces. Seems kind of logical to send 100 reps from each province. |
