Not Standing for Reconfirmation

Post by Christian Democrats »

Constitution of the Rejected Realms,Article 6 | Section E wrote:Every 1 May, all current Councillors shall be subject to reconfirmation votes. Reconfirmation requires two-thirds majority. If a Councillor is not reconfirmed, the position shall became [sic] vacant.
Due primarily to real-world obligations and secondarily to my service on the newly established General Assembly Secretariat, I have decided not to stand for reconfirmation to the Citizenship Council on May 1. As I complete my second term, I feel that I am no longer able to perform the duties of this office as well as I would like and, therefore, that somebody else should be appointed to replace me. I thank Guy for nominating me to the Council in May 2015, I thank the Assembly for confirming me 16-0, and I thank the Assembly for reconfirming me 11-4 in May 2016.

(Admins: I am finishing the final week of my term, so don't remove my permissions yet. This is not a resignation.)

Thank you for your service. :)

As a note, Christian Democrats was nominated by Guy in his capacity as Speaker. His successor will therefore be nominated by the incumbent Speaker. (I was nominated by the Officer with the longest continuous tenure as citizen, and Guy was nominated by the Delegate).
Constitution,article 6b wrote:... The manner of selection of the third Councillor shall be prescribed by the Assembly. ...
Speaker Act wrote:7. The Office shall appoint the Assembly-selected Councillor of the Citizenship Council.

2 years processing cit apps - that's a while... Thanks for serving, and don't go inactive just because you don't have a job to do here.

Also @Weyes, can you appoint the worst candidate possible for the role? Like a random RMBer.
