Bill: Call for early elections, August 2898

Details

Submitted by[?]: Hutorian Conservative Party

Status[?]: defeated

Votes: This bill requests an early election. It requires more than half of the legislature to vote yes. This bill will pass as soon as the required yes votes are in, or will be defeated if unsufficient votes are reached on the deadline. Elections will be held immediately if the bill passes.

Voting deadline: April 2899

Description[?]:

We, the Hutori National Party, call for early elections as we feel it would be in the best interests of the parties that currently hold seats to quickly defeat the two newly formed parties in Hutori.

Elections before the two new parties gain a support base would ensure they are no threat to the major parties until the next official election!

ToDebating the Call for early elections, August 2898
MessageMadam Speaker, these early elections will also act as a referendum to the ongoing struggle between the Monarchist and Anti-Monarchist parties.

ToDebating the Call for early elections, August 2898
MessageMadam Speaker, given the huge volume of legislation currently before the house, we believe that an early election at this point would be foolish.

From Hutorian Conservative Party
ToDebating the Call for early elections, August 2898
MessageMadam Speaker, all bills are simply put back to the debate stage and all legislation currently before the house will be put to the vote again. Whether the NSP have any seats to cast a vote is another question!

From Union of Radical Republicans (UM)
ToDebating the Call for early elections, August 2898
MessageYes, Madame Speaker, but put to a vote to be ultimately enacted ten months after the election. Frankly, the current schedule is sufficient.

Date10:20:20, February 24, 2010 CET
From Conservative-Libertarian Party (UM)
ToDebating the Call for early elections, August 2898
MessageMadam Speaker, there is no need for a "referendum". All parties, with the exception of the HNP, were elected with the public in full knowledge as to their stance on the monarchy. That is how parliamentary democracy works.

Random fact: When you join the game, you will find yourself with only zero seats. That's because your party's representatives haven't been elected yet. You need to establish your party's position on issues by proposing several bills that your party wants passed and sending them to vote. This raises your visibility and if you do it enough, you will win seats at the next election.
