Bill: Call for early elections, April 4207
Details
Submitted by[?]: Dorvische Allianz für Freiheit
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: January 4208
Description[?]:
| Speaker, Political factions from both the Left- and Right-wing of the political spectrum fail to co-operate to form a cabinet, resulting in a status-quo that is hurting our country more than anything else during this time of economic hardship. We need action right now, which is why we suggest a new, early election to make forming a new cabinet easier. |
Proposals
Article 1
Arrange early elections as soon as this bill passes.
