The elections will take place December 29th to January 1st. Polls will open Thursday morning at 9:00am (Eastern Time), and close Sunday night at 11:59pm, in accordance with our Constitution.

The election campaign starts immediately.

All nations that reside in Canada are eligible to present themselves as candidates. Interested nations should announce their intention to run in the forum that corresponds to the position they'd like to assume. All candidates must announce their intentions to run at least 24 hours before the polls open.

All candidates must remember that they have to disclose any conflicts of interest, in accordance with the Conflict of Interest Guidelines.

As stated in the law:
QUOTE
For greater certainty, a Government Position in a region outside of the Region of Canada shall be defined as any position of influence within a governing structure of a region outside the Region of Canada, including those that are equivalent to the Canadian positions of “Minister“ “Deputy Minister“ “Ambassador”, "Delegate", "Founder" and “CIA Intelligence Agent“.


Anyone who holds such positions outside of this region, must formally declare them here.

Candidates are encouraged to post platforms and policy announcements, while average citizens are encouraged to pose questions to the declared candidates.

Any citizen of the region may nominate another for a Cabinet position. Nominations can be posted in this thread.

If anyone has any questions about the cabinet postions or the duties required, I'd encourage them to first consult the Constitution . You can also PM Carbanousa, or someone else from cabinet, so that all such questions can be answered. Questions may also be posted in this thread.

I wish all the candidates the best of luck.

If you are a Visitor, Guest or Ambassador and you desire to vote and/or run for office in this election but do not have Member status you should contact me via PM. Every case will be dealt with accordingly.

I wanted to make a post to complement C6 on the great job he did setting up the campaign/voting calendar. There are a lot of things going on in the region these next few weeks and how he has set up the calendar makes thing very clear.
