Created this thread so people may comment on the election as it stands and/or state inquiries to the Election Commission, and also so that the Election Commission may state questions to the Administration about votecounting or such.
The rolls do not list them simply because Quak hasn't yet added them to the rolls. They, and others admitted after the commencement of the vote will be added to the rolls in time but their votes will not be valid, so Mister Masses is the last citizen listed who is able to cast a valid vote.15. A citizen's vote will not be valid unless they maintain citizenship for the entire duration of the vote.
So close, Clegg!Zyvetskistaahn:If I may, Corporal Clegg's citizenship lapsed before the election, they reapplied on the 5th at 5:17pm (GMT), which was before the commencement of voting, however, all checks were not completed until the 6th at 4:23pm (also GMT), which was after the commencement of voting. Their vote is, as I understand, therefore invalid, due to clause 15 of Section 6.3 of the Legal Code, which reads:

Your citizenship must have lapsed while you were away.Great Bights Mum:I'm confused. I've been here since Moses was in reeds. How can I not be a citizen?plembobria:On that topic, GBM. Your vote is uhh... invalid as well. Have you applied for citizenship again?
I think it has to do with forum posts which atleast from what I can see you haven't made for an almost two month periodGreat Bights Mum:Well, at least I wasn't dead this time. But I was gone for 27 days, not 30. I suppose I should take it up with the Speaker.
Taken care of.r3naissanc3r:Are all the voting posts set for moderation approval invalid ballots?
If yes, can you edit them to say "invalid ballot" or sth instead, so that they don't show up in the mod queue?
