Any questions regarding the election process, please either consult Legislative Edict Governing Official Elections (LEGOE) or the Election Coordinator.

Nomination Process

1. A member on the voting list posts a message under the topic Nomination, indicating the member they are nominating as a candidate for President.
2. Another member on the voting list replies to the nomination post, seconding the nomination.
3. The nominated member replies to the seconder's post to either accept or turn down the nomination (the nomination may also be turned down before it is seconded). In the same post, the nominated member names the running mate who will be running as Vice-President.
4. The Election Coordinator will reply to validate the ticket (or raise an issue if there is one). The ticket may begin campaigning once they have been validated. No one may campaign in support of any candidates until their ticket has been validated.
