Personally I think a ballot with the south, jefferson and the IDS whichever gets the most should be the one used. That would be my preference if we're doing a ballot.

"Ben wants to not give southerners a choice" Look, Ahab. Can we please stop this?

"even if YT hadn't introduced the bill, Ben would have tried to force through renaming it back to IDS, and been a lot less reasonable than YT on the issue
you don't know Ben and how he works
at least how it's currently planned, the southerners actually pick, not the chamber"

well, if we're going to speculate on my motives am I at least allowed to present what I planned to do?

or are we just going to assume, sans proof and condemn me while we're at it?

my original plan was to present the IDS bill to rename the south the IDS. Beyond that was up to the delegates. The reason I wasn't happy was that as a con amendment, there were other issues that needed to be considered. Issues that have pretty much been glossed over and aren't relevant at present since we're not doing that. I don't see how that counts as 'forcing the bill through' anymore so than any other bill to the delegates.

"It’s a policy, and if he can’t vote based on policy he shouldn’t be a delegate" ok ahab, can you please stop with this?

@Deleted User just apologize and we can

To the southern people

Also dude your bill you proposed as a modification isn’t giving people a choice

Considering the Governor would have to sign it and it would be a law

The people wouldn’t decide

Part 16473817263749391716 of Ben lying again

I've stated here that I'm fine with a ballot

are you going to be civil ahab?

But what you proposed wasn’t

Look I’ve got an idea I want to work on with the Speaker

And I think it’ll work out well

that's why I stated I was fine with a ballot

because that was the question at hand no?

What I want is the Speaker to open the floor up to the general

Public

The people introduce their ideas

We close it after 24 hours

Then we pass a law allowing for a referendum to change the south’s name with a ranked choice election

The name that achieves 50.1% will be the new name

I think the three options are the majority options that have come up, Jefferson, the IDS and the South.

Well yeah

it seems to me that most people favor one of the three.

But it’s not democracy if we limit people’s choices now is it

I see no reason why a referendum between those three would be an issue

Which is why I want to open the floor up for public debate

To the general public I mean

we already have that in the thread that's been put up

there's a pretty good discussion in the thread, IMO

But it’s for members lol, what I’m proposing would be official

This way we have a clear cut way of doing things that has a specific timeline

And I hope Tim will agree with me on this

I see no need to reinvent the wheel when there's already a pretty good thread for public consultation on this issue

I think we can go ahead with the referendum between the three.
