|
|
You Majesty,
You asked me in the thread in my office how we can be sure that the counting of the ballots is not corrupt.
I replied that ballots be sent to two different people, you and myself, and that you verify my count.
You replied that you don't know about that.
Would you please explain?

I mean If the King can do that, another King may corrupt it.
But For now it will be fine

This system of 2 people checking the Ballots seems fine to me, given our small population and indeed small ballot casting.
However, I would suggest that a record of all ballots casted be kept until the next election, in case there are any issuing arrisng in the period between the election result and the election. Of course, this record will be kept secret by the Ballot reciever.
Just an idea?

Your Majesty, considering that two seats are to be contested, which electoral system is to be used?
Also, as it has been established that the Prime Minister is elected each term by the newly-elected Parliament, shouldn't three seats be up for election instead?

Your Majesty,
I fully agree with both Michael and Chris on these matters.
The ballots shall be kept at least until the next election and perhaps a method can be found to show those results without revealing which ballot is from who - I think I have an idea on that.
I'll assign a secret number/letter code to each ballot. Each person can keep track of their code. When the ballots are revealed each person can check by the code and make a protest if the feel their ballot was counted incorrectly.
Also, since the Prime Minister is to be elected by the members of Parliament and by the members of Parliament I think it is only right to put all three seats up for election.

Thank you all, We shall follow these recomendations for the election.
However I ask you to Pro Bono legislate an Election Act that would set all of this is into a legal bill for the future if need be.
