As it has been discussed in several threads and a fail proposal, we currently lack a set of strict guidelines on how should elected positions be handled by the HGA. The only actual guidelines that exists for such a thing, is the one relevant to the speaker of the HGA:
It is my opinion, since this system is simple enough, and has worked thus far, that we could simply extend or implement this in a manner that would allow it to be a general election guidelines. Since it is easier to start a discussion with a draft, here is what I present to you (without much specific care for legislative writing yet, since this is meant to be a first draft):
This is not a definitive draft, and all of it is open to discussion. Here is my reasoning for must of it:
1) Our community is one that does not usually feels comfortable with over-complex processes, and hence a streamlined simple method of holding elections should allow for an easier involvement of all members of the HGA.
2) There is no need to complicate the voting system in a community with the size of our at this point.
3) The General Election act should be general enough to allow to be refered by other acts that require to establish an election process, without needing to make ammends to it everytime a new position is created.
I'll welcome your comments
