45RZ07 - The Almost Real Amendment

WHEREAS there is currently little competition for Cosâ seats, and WHEREAS this might be because there are more Cosâ seats than citizens, and WHEREAS the result of this is that parties that barely get any votes can still be elected in the Cosâ, and WHEREAS because of this there is little incentive for very small parties to work together, and WHEREAS another result of the ridiculous amount of seats is that large parties are able to distribute near unlimited amounts of seats to candidates, and WHEREAS these problems could be solved by switching to a real Cosâ, and WHEREAS to realistically require parties to assign all their seats to different persons the size of the Cosâ needs to be reduced to about 20 seats, and WHEREAS this would significantly reduce the proportionality of the Cosâ, and WHEREAS this could be solved by not reducing the Cosâ but instead waiting for the population to increase, and WHEREAS it will take an eternity for the population to increase enough to result in a real 200 seat Cosâ, and WHEREAS a Cosâ of about 60 seats might be the best of both worlds, and WHEREAS this would not significantly affect the proportionality of the Cosâ, but still increase competition for Cosâ seats, and WHEREAS 60, unlike 200, can be divided by three, which might be useful, since 2/3rds of the Cosâ is an important threshold, now THEREFORE Article VIII, Section 1 of the Organic Law, which previously read: "The Cosâ is composed of 200 seats, apportioned among political parties based on their performance in the General Election" will be amended to read: "The Cosâ is composed of 60 seats, apportioned among political parties based on their performance in the General Election" ; FURTHERMORE Article VIII Section 3, which previously read: "Seats won by each party shall be divided by that party among its own members and supporters as it sees fit, with the proviso that each Member of the Cosâ may hold no more than thirty seats.", will be amended to read: "Seats won by each party shall be divided by that party among its own members and supporters as it sees fit, with the proviso that each Member of the Cosâ may hold no more than nine seats and seats must be assigned as a whole and cannot be divided among multiple MC's."
