HARLESBURG BILL PROPOSAL
For some time now Harlesburg has been greatly concerned by the meager 5 days allowed for voting.
No Doubt the Right Honourable Pure Metal did an outstanding job in using his own personel website to tally the ballots, however Harlesburg feels that the 5 days should be extended to a minimum of 7 and upto and including at the very most 1 half of an 8th day.

I propose this part of an 8th day because of the time zone factor, the unknown irritation which ones life can sometimes be, if one(Pure Metal) goes out for lunch on the final day of the polls he would be unable to close them as such a slight elongation of said polls should be acceptable.

For this reason and the reason of 5 days not being enough to give a large percentage of those NSer's who would care to partake in said NS elections i put forward this proposal.
----------------------------------
Hopefully i can garner enough votes for this to see a second reading put it to the vote and see it pass.
For mine i see this to be more Democratic than the current system.i support the thingy to dissolve parliament and have new elections. we didn't really do much, did we?

i'll also support harlesburg's proposal to extend the voting window to 7 or 8 ish days. if only because a week is a much nicer period of time to work with.
Anywho, yarr, put me down as supporting both the move to dissolve parliment and the election reform bill.I'll support it.
You can sign me up for that.
I support the extension of elections to 7 and a half days.

I support Harleys proposal to extend the voting period.
The bill I support is the one to extend election time, by the way.

Oh damn, you had me all excited then. I thought the NS parliament was going to turning itself into a dictatorship.

'Oh i say, wouldn't it just be jolly if we voted to increase our term of office?'

*Bumps*

The Parliament and other such threads (like this one) need more attention.
