[Lnc-business] Seeking Co-Sponsors for Motion regarding internal debate rules for 2018 NatCon

[Daniel Hayes]

I  will be putting forward the following motion if needed, however, I would encourage all people sponsoring motions to withdraw their sponsorships until after the next COC meeting this Monday at 9:30PM Eastern.  I personally had reservations for the standard we put forward and I have much greater comfort for something along the lines of what I am proposing here.

I had hoped people would heed Nick’s request so I held off on this.  People haven’t withdrawn other motions so, time to seek Co-sponsors for this one.


——————-
Move to direct the Convention Oversight Committee to amend the Chair and Vice-Chair debate inclusion rules to include the following provisions:

There shall be a maximum of 5 candidates on stage at the 2018 Libertarian National Convention during any internal debate for the office being sought.  Tokens shall include as an option, “None of the Above (NOTA)”.   Also, tokens shall provide a space for a write-in candidate.

Delegates shall only be allotted one token per debated office and shall only select one option per token.  Tokens with more than one option selected shall not be counted to determine debate inclusion.  Tokens shall not be transferable.

Any candidate that receives fewer tokens than NOTA for a debated office shall not be included in that debate.  There shall be no representative for NOTA included in these debates.
