PREAMBLE

We've seen way too much incompetence when it comes to electoral committees. I'm sorry, but I can't put it any other way. It is incompetence and massive corruption, thus we need a decent electoral body able to run elections, not a bunch of bias congressmen who block whoever they want in order to have their agendas pushed forward without problems.

SECTION I. SHORT TITLE

This act shall be known as the "Congressional electoral law".

SECTION II. THE FEDERAL ELECTION COMMISSION

(a) There is a Federal Election Commission, also named FEC in this act.

(b) The Federal Election Commission shall bear the responsibility of hosting and regulating elections pertaining to the U.S. Congress such as:
(1) Elections for any committee within Congress;
(2) Elections for any elected leadership position within Congress (Speaker of the House, President pro tempore of the Senate, leaders);
(3) General elections for all classes of Congress;
(4) Any other election process deemed necessary.

SECTION III. COMPOSITION

(a) The Federal Election Commission that bears responsibility of the Congressional elections shall be composed of five (5) members and two (2) overseers that are chosen at the very end of each month in order to serve for the rest of the following month; the term being 1 month, with no limits on how many times a person can serve on the FEC.

(b) The composition of the FEC shall be the following:
(1) Two members from the legislative branch (one from the House of Representatives and one from the Senate), chosen on an open forum vote regulated by the Speaker of the House, respectively the Vice President or the President pro tempore of the Senate. The House shall elect their own commissioner and the Senate shall elect theirs;
(2) Two members from the executive branch (one appointed by the President of the United States and one appointed by the Vice President of the United States) - the appointees must work within the executive and they can hold any position in the said branch, but no position in any other branches.
(3) One Clan Manager appointed by either Nightgaladeld or by a majority of the clan managers. The clan manager appointed shall hold no public office within the United States and shall be not known as a person involved with politics.
(4) Two overseers from the judicial branch that are appointed by the Supreme Court. These may only be justices or judges who shall only oversee the process and have no influential statements during the election.

SECTION IV. ORGANIZATION AND LEGISLATION

(a) The FEC has the following scopes and organizes in the following way:
(1) All election information shall be stored on one (or more) trello board(s) that can be publicly viewed anytime;
(2) Any kind of motions passed within the commission must be approved by at least half of the members in order to pass. Motions may be disqualification of signatures, disqualification of candidates for breaking laws or election rules, disqualification of voters for being suspicious (ALTs, very small account age or any irregularities found by the FEC), extension of an election in case it is needed and any other motions deemed necessary;
(3) If somebody does not vote on a motion within 16 hours then their vote counts as an abstain (this is to make sure that motions will be passed or denied within 16 hours in case they don't reach a majority because of inactivity);
(4) Certain illegal/unlawful/evidently bias (conflict of interest) motions can be struck down by the proposal of at least one overseer and the approval of the Supreme Court;
(5) The FEC shall elect their Chairperson that may appoint a Vice Chairperson and both shall be FEC commissioners. The Chairperson is the main representative of the FEC, who writes election forums and manages the trello boards and other logistics. The Chairperson is responsible of making sure that the commission runs smoothly and legally, according to this act;
(6) Commissioners may establish the electoral rules for general elections, but the main ones remain as it follows:
(i) Each candidate shall create a forum to gain signatures. The content of the forum does not matter as long as it announces the candidacy of the said person. The amount of signatures shall be chosen by the FEC, but shall not be lower than 15 or higher than 25;
(ii) After gaining their signatures, the candidate shall send the forum link and their political affiliation to the election representative/host. All signatures will be checked by the FEC according to the Constitution in order to make sure that every voter/supporter has a valid account;
(iii) All candidates that acquired the amount of needed signatures and submitted their forum before the time limit, are officially put on the election ballot, which will be an open forum or an in-game vote with a PUBLIC trello board where all votes are recorded;
(iv) Candidates may only be disqualified if a motion passes and if they breached the following rules:
(A) Breaching any of the regulations of the real life 18 U.S. Code Chapter 29 - Elections and Political Activities;
(B) Partaking in any form of criminal activity DURING the election process;
(C) Advertising their signature thread on other signature threads or on the registration forum;
(D) Shouting their campaign in ANY ROBLOX group;
(E) Candidates can freely campaign on the wall of the main NUSA group, political party groups (the party leaders are allowed to delete advertisements if they feel it is necessary), candidacy groups of any office candidate that allows campaigning in their group, city ads, private messages and other means of communication;
(F) Posting more than one campaign advertisement on any group wall (commonly known as 'double posting') without deleting the extra post immediately and leaving it there is not allowed (if more persons campaign for one person on the same page that is allowed);
(G) Deleting wall posts to keep a Congressional campaign advertisement at the top is forbidden.
(v) Other rules can be added or dissolved by the FEC with majority;
(vi) Registration and ballot voting last at least 36 hours each, but the time can be changed by two thirds of the FEC;
(vii) House and Senate elections can not be hosted at the same time. On the 1st of each month the FEC shall assemble to start an election for one of the Chambers. Once the election is over, the FEC shall host the election for the other Chamber of Congress;
(viii) Candidates can be disqualified both during registration and during ballot vote in case they break essential rules or laws.
(7) Commissioners can be removed by two thirds of the FEC. The branch that lacks the expelled member shall appoint a new one;
(8) All FEC motions and votes are to be recorded on the public trello. Trello is the ONLY mean of motion proposals and motion votes;
(9) Any other election, excepting the general ones (that last longer), shall last for 24 hours.

(b) One may not serve on the FEC if they were previously found guilty in court for any law violations. Each commissioner shall have a ROBLOX account age of at least 180 and they must have been a U.S. citizen for at least 60 days.

(c) Being a commissioner is not public office and any trusted person can be a member of the commission if they meet the requirements.

(d) All contrary electoral laws or resolutions are hereby repealed.

(e) This act shall be in effect at the end of June 2016, when the first FEC will be estalished.

*The FEC only hosts ELECTIONS (not ousts, expulsions, impeachments, bills or such acts).

Signed,
Congressman HHPrinceGeorge,
Speaker of the House.
