Election Chairman

The Election Chairman is a member of the clan who is chosen to carry out an election. It is the Election Chairman's job to tally the votes and declare a winner. An Election Chairman can not run in the election they are Chairman of. Over the course of The Republic's history, Captain Magma has acted as Election Chairman most frequently.

Constitutional Text
"Elections are main issue of the clan. The Co-Leader council must previously vote (majority needed) on an Election Chairman, no more than two days earlier. Failing to do so will push the election back until one is named. The Election Chairman may not run in the election they are representing. The Chairman is responsible for making sure the Constitution is respected during the election process. Everyone in the clan is able to vote in the elections, but who can run for a position is laid out below. Elections are open for twenty-four hours and one can only vote once in that twenty-four hours. There is no changing one's vote once locked in. The player makes their vote known to the Election Chairman. Votes can be made anonymously if the player has outside connections to the Chairman. Players that are unable to be present for the twenty-four hours may make their vote known to the Chairman previously. Voting in proxy may be done as well. A player may choose to give up their vote to another player, in which the Chairman must be notified by the player giving their vote prior to voting opening. At the end of the day the Chairman must present the election's winner, as well as the vote tallies to the public if asked."
