Bill: Call for early elections, July 2137
Details
Submitted by[?]: National People's Gang
Status[?]: passed
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: March 2138
Description[?]:
| The lunatics normally in charge of the asylum appear to be out to lunch. While we believe certain degrees of either lunacy or lunching are acceptable - perhaps necessary - facets of a thriving democracy, we cannot believe the electorate would sanction their simultaneous practice. |
Proposals
Article 1
Arrange early elections as soon as this bill passes.

| Message | please wait with calling for early elections until the bills in vote have been finished. Otherwise, our positions wouldnt change a bit, and the results would be roughly the same. I can agree with early elections in 1 or 2 years, but not now. |
| Date | 18:34:20, November 08, 2005 CET | From | Cooperative Commonwealth Federation | To | Debating the Call for early elections, July 2137 |
| Message | We tend to agree: early elections are needed, but we would like to wait for the CBW treaty to be approved. (But since i may not be on-line again today, the yes vote goes in now.) |
| Date | 20:28:17, November 08, 2005 CET | From | Slaytanic Wehrmacht | To | Debating the Call for early elections, July 2137 |
| Message | so please vote no then, because if this bill passes the cbw treaty will reset to debate. I will vote for early elections after the current bills are finished. Right now, it is a very bad time for elections. |

| Message | We see no advantage for the Satanists in spending two frustrating years in Cabinet, achieving few if any bills because the agenda has been seized through covert agreements between the "greens" and the Remnants. |
| Date | 01:41:08, November 09, 2005 CET | From | Slaytanic Wehrmacht | To | Debating the Call for early elections, July 2137 |
| Message | The voters will not change their decision just because we did not like it. |
| Date | 04:19:45, November 09, 2005 CET | From | Tuesday Is Coming | To | Debating the Call for early elections, July 2137 |
| Message | I like the current arrangement. Much more has been accomplished since the recent election than beforehand. I start cooperating with other parties and all of a sudden that's a problem? |
