Bill: Monarchist Pledge

Voting deadline: February 5268
Description[?]:
| Those that approve of this bill pledge to support the replacement of the president with a powerless hereditary monarch. The candidate put forward by the Federal Whig Party is Lucille Pemberton, a long-time Whig whom has served in Parliament and the Cabinet, as the best choice for Beluzia's first monarch in centuries. Pemberton has accepted, and she emphasized that she would merely play a ceremonial role and not an active role in government. Her eldest son, Harold, has agreed to replace her as the next choice, thereby establishing a new line of succession for the throne. Any that wish to place the Pembertons on the throne will endorse the Federalist Presidential candidate, Ms. Pemberton. |
