Bill: Title of the Head of State
Details
Submitted by[?]: Monkeygnome Party
Status[?]: defeated
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: May 2122
Description[?]:
| We suggest renaming the title of the office of the Head of State, as President is far too common and boring for our tastes. We offer our previously defeated suggestion of Auriga, which sounds awesome and is Latin for 'driver', but await any other suggestios. |

| Message | This looks good. Is there no way to make the others vote? They seem to abstain on everything, which is pretty dull. |

| Message | Phooey. I guess I'll try again after the next election, maybe if they stay inactive they'll lose even more seats. |

| Message | Isn't Auriga latin for "charioteer"? It's been awhile since I took latin. I wish my nation was like this...Rock on! |

| Message | My latin-english dictionary translates "driver" to "auriga", and it translates "auriga" to "charioteer, pilot, driver". So yes, it does also translate to "charioteer". |

| Message | We'll do it again once the next elections occur or once the inactive parties vanish. |
