Knesset Election for President

PinkyGen · October 19, 2003, 02:58

Ok, since the President thread has been done for a while, I shall now ask each knesset member to vote for who they want to be President. The nominees are Ben Kenobi and Conmcb25.

When the game is going, we can arrange for a Basic Law to more clearly define this process.

Knesset Members:
1. PinkyGen
2. Conmcb25
3. Ben Kenobi
4. EmuGod
5. Stalin II

I vote for my friend and ally, Concmb25.

(This isn't to say all of you aren't my friends.

However, I know not all of you are my allies.

)

This is a knesset election only right now, that may change in the future.

How long do we have to vote? Im sort of waiting for panag to come back, I want to hear his speech........

have a nice day

Only knesset members may vote, so I ask non-knesset members to stump elsewhere.

It ends when all knesset members have voted, I am willing to give it a few days, but I'm certainly not delaying it in hopes Panag comes back. (Indeed, I hope he does not).

One minute....I don't think it is right to allow someone to run for President if they already have a defined role in the knesset such as economic minister, defence minister etc. The point of the two separate roles is to give two people jobs in the knesset and it would be unfair to everyone if someone with a defined role in the knesset could take another position.

We dont have that do we Emu?

I dont have a job, Ben doesn't have a job and panag certainly doesan't have a job, so again Im missing your point here?

Nobody who is running has a current job.

Sorry. I did not see that only Kenesset members were supposed to vote.

EmuGod · October 19, 2003, 19:43

I confused myself for a minute there between the cabinet and knesset. Also, panag is not a candidate unless one of the knesset members nominates him and I don't think any of us did that.

No problem, but with this being a Demo game I think Im going to push for all of us to vote whether that is true in Israel or not. Just seems fairer that way to me.

We are gonna do a poll on this before the first 6 months (game time) is up.

Ben Kenobi · October 19, 2003, 22:31

/me uses the force to influence Ben Kenobi to vote.

Looks like Ben Kenobi gets a vote.

PinkyGen · October 19, 2003, 23:01

That's two votes. I'd appreciate the other three voting.

Nilat · October 20, 2003, 04:28

Conmcb25 for president!!

conmcb25 · October 20, 2003, 10:16

So far its conmcb25 -2 votes
Ben Kenobi -1 vote

Emu, Im not voting until you do, Whats your vote?

EmuGod · October 20, 2003, 17:38

After careful consideration, I've decided to vote for conmcb25 since he has been instrumental in getting the coalition together and in planning out the democracy game.

PinkyGen · October 20, 2003, 18:01

Congradulations to our new President.

conmcb25 · October 20, 2003, 18:05

I guess I dont have to vote then, and since PinkyGen told me yesterday, I had to behave then I guess I wont vote afteralll.......

You need to set an example now.

conmcb25 · October 20, 2003, 19:13

But its SO hard!

Ben Kenobi · October 25, 2003, 14:37

The Harmony Party also welcomes their new President and exhorts him to be a moral example for all Israelis.

Congratualtions, Conmcb.
