The Speaker nomination period ended with only one candidate declaring their candidacy and gaining five seconds of his nomination. The bill for you to vote on, then, is as follows:

A. Dmitri Covasku
B. Re-open nominations

This vote is conducting using the instant run-off method, meaning MPs may choose to vote for any number of options they wish to, provided that they rank order the options if they choose to include both on the ballot. This vote lasts 24 hours beginning now.
