Voting deadline: April 5092
Description[?]:
| Mr. Speaker, Hutorians deserve the right to choose their government more than once every five years. The lack of consistent elections calls our democracy into question, and I implore all parties to support a reduction in the period between elections. The Liberals propose elections be held every four years (48 months), but we are open to considering even shorter periods between elections, for instance, 3.5 years (42 months). Jeremy McCarry MP for Carter City Skyview Leader of the Liberal Party |

| Message | Mr. speaker, democracy call for frequency, do the minds of our people only change every 5 years? or even 4? I would recommend going down to the 3.5 years as it seems reasonable that 3 and a half years will be enough time to see if the people like a government. yours in truth James Leader of the NHLF |
| Date | 17:38:46, March 20, 2022 CET | From | Progressive Conservative Party of Hutori | To | Debating the Bill LP-020: Fair Elections Act |
| Message | Mr. Speaker, Progressive Conservatives support this Bill as written. Four years between elections has been the historic standard in Hutorian politics, and we believe restoring that standard would be the right decision. Hon. Sean McKay MP for Bekenial Centre Leader of the Progressive Conservative Party |
