Constitutional Amendment Election Process

Post by Rosie Gray »

Due to the nature of our voting software, we are currently unable to vote on more than two Chancellor candidates, and the administrator of the software needs to rewrite the software to adjust this. Currently he is unable to get to it because of work obligations by the 10th. Because of this and other unforeseen circumstances that could arise in the future, I propose that we amend the constitution:

Currently reads:
Elections shall be held over a 168 hour period beginning at noon SLT on the Saturday before the 16th of the month prior to the new RAs taking office. In the event of a server outage which prevents citizens from casting ballots and which lasts more than 12 hours, the Dean of the SC has the authority to adjust or extend the election schedule.

Proposed change:
Elections shall be held over a 168 hour period beginning at noon SLT on the Saturday before the 16th of the month prior to the new RAs taking office. In the event of a server outage, software problems, or unforeseen technical issue which prevents citizens from casting ballots and which lasts more than 12 hours, the Dean of the SC has the authority to adjust or extend the election schedule.
