| Date | 21:59:59, December 08, 2010 CET | From | Sozialliberale Partei der Demokraten | To | Debating the Constitutional Amendment |

| Message | Gerhard Fleck: We are voting against this, because we don't want political instablity in this country. The current legth of the term is completly okey, and I don't see any point in changing it. |
| Date | 15:08:43, December 09, 2010 CET | From | Sozialliberale Partei der Demokraten | To | Debating the Constitutional Amendment |
| Message | We ARE HAVING political instability at the moment as neither of the parties is able to form a coalition government. Furthermore, elections always mirror the voter's will. By doing so more often, Malivia would become more democratic. |

| Message | Then we must let the voters speak in earlier elections. |

| Message | Führer des Malivischen Volkes,Ferdinand Völkherz, Oberste Führer des Tiggen Bundesland und Westland Bundesland, We are only voting in favour due to Article 1, which is vital. Parties need to be able to propose as much legislation as possible in order to represent the people. We support a reduction in term length but view 36 months as too short. |
| Date | 18:33:13, December 09, 2010 CET | From | Sozialliberale Partei der Demokraten | To | Debating the Constitutional Amendment |
| Message | Would 48 be a proposal that the KPM could agree upon? |
| Date | 19:10:40, December 09, 2010 CET | From | Großmalivische Reichspartei | To | Debating the Constitutional Amendment |
| Message | (OOC: KPM or MVP? KPM already said they don't see any point in changing it.. My party would support 48 months) |
