DATE: March 18th, 2015 AD
Endorsements:
Denouncements:
THE VOTER RENEWAL ACT
Recognizing the right for citizens and residents in the Commonwealth to vote for whoever they desire on the ballot.
Concerned that less than 60% of eligible voters actually vote, therefore our government only reflects the views of a minority of the citizen population.
Believing that policies should be put in place in order to maximize our government and the voting populous.
ARTICLES:
•All citizens and residents within the Commonwealth (excluding foreigners) will be required to vote for Cabinet in every other election cycle, at least.
•These citizens will have to vote for a Chancellor and Minister of Defense. All other offices can be ignored, if desired.
•If none of the options for Chancellor or Minister of Defense appeal to the voter, he/she (the voter) can vote "None of The Above/Abstain", or "write-in" a candidate, provided that the candidate is an active citizen.
•If a citizen is unable to vote during an election in which it is required of them to do so, they must notify the Chancellor at least 24 hours prior to the first election night.
•If a citizen does not vote in an election in which they must, they shall receive one strike. After two strikes, their citizenship is temporarily revoked (1-month), and a decision by the Minister of Internal Affairs can have the citizenship revoked indefinitely.
•Citizens can appeal to the Chancellor to be exempted from this law, if they have a logical reason. If granted, they are relieved of the duty, but not the right, to vote.
