Voting Period for Senate Chair

Seeing no further discussion on the floor, we are now entering into the voting period, the following vote options are available;

• Ashlawn (IND)
• Cerdenia (IND)
• Dykataar (NTN)
• Present
• Abstain

Alongside the standard vote options to vote for a specific candidate and an abstention, Senators can also vote 'Present', indicating an abstention from choice that is not discounted from the total votes cast, whereas a standard abstain is discounted from voting.

As the chamber consists of 9 members, a simple majority of 5 votes is necessary to elect a Chair.

Should no candidate receive a simple majority in this vote, as per Article II Section III of the Constitution, a run-off vote will be held between the top two candidates of the first round. Should a tie occur for the first place spot occur, all tied candidates will proceed to a run-off where a plurality will be necessary to elect a Chair.

Senators, you may now cast your votes...
