Term duration straw poll

[Monte Ozarka]

Another poll. Yay?

 

[punk d]

Fixed.

Government officials should always be accountable to the people. The way we hold officials accountable is with our vote.

 

[Gulliver]

Fixed, though of course with the option to boot someone out of office and hold an extraordinary election if necessary.

 

[Great Bights Mum]

Elections are fun. Let's have them at regular intervals.

 

[Algerianbania]

Having it set in stone will create much less confusion.

 

[New Kervoskia]

Elections are fun. Let's have them at regular intervals.

I concur! We'll make it like American Idol which will make run-offs extra fun.

 

[Gulliver]

Run offs are a silly waste of time. I think it would be far wiser to either employ Instant Runoff Voting, or better yet, the Condorcet method for elections. But getting off topic with that comment.

Fixed term, with the option of being able to call early elections
