[SUBMITTED] Am I the Senate?

[Wille-Harlia]

Bumpy.

[Nooooooooooooooo]

That way is the reinstatement the Upper House.

Caught a normal typo here. I think you mean "reinstatement of the Upper House."

"I'm sure we can come to some sort of 'arrangement,

Here's another one. You left out the apostrophe at the end of "arrangement".

Thanks, done!

Do people think this is ready for submission?

[Nooooooooooooooo]

Do people think this is ready for submission?

Yes. It looks good, and I really think it will be accepted, since there are no other issues like it.

Looked through it again, and edited it for better readability. Current draft is:
[Title] Am I the Senate?

[Validity] Picked #560.1, must not have Autocracy policy

In a historically low candidacy turnout, only five people ran for seats in the Lower House of the @@DEMONYMADJECTIVE@@ Legislature, and each person ran for a different seat. The Lower House is the only house of the Legislature as the Upper House was abolished. Seeing that under @@DEMONYM@@ law the legislature needs more than five members to form, political theorists from all over @@NAME@@ have descended upon your office to tell you how they think this crisis should be dealt with.

[Option] "There is an extremely simple solution to this problem," states famous sortitionist, @@RANDOMNAME@@. "We should hold a lottery, with every @@DEMONYM@@ entered, and enough winners to allow for a functioning Lower House. That way, we will always have enough people to run the nation! While it will be expensive to keep track of every @@DEMONYM@@ in the nation, I think it's well worth the price of a real democracy. Don't you think so, @@LEADER@@?" @@HE@@ then slides a pamphlet titled Real Democracy: Sortition in Practice across your desk as @@HE@@ leaves.
[Effect] dementia patients and serial killers can serve together as legislators in @@NAME@@

[Option] "That is absurd!" yells famous General @@RANDOMNAME@@, now retired. "There is a much more civilized way to go about this than a lottery, @@LEADER@@. You should reinstate the Upper House." @@HE@@ starts fiddling with @@HIS@@ many medals, including the Order of the @@ANIMAL@@. "But instead of the Upper House being elected, you, @@LEADER@@, should appoint prominent members of the military and other fields to the House. That way, there will always be enough people to form a legislature in @@NAME@@, and they will be smart enough for the job as well! Now, maybe you could, uh, appoint me to the Upper House?" @@HE@@ bows extravagantly to you on @@HIS@@ way out.
[Effect] scientists researching cures for critical diseases are dragged away from their work to run the nation
[Validity] Must have a military

[Option] "Now, now, let's not be hasty," interjects @@RANDOMNAME@@, one of the five elected legislators, as he pushes past the general. "So what if there were only five of us running, each for a different seat? All that means is that the people want, uh, a smaller government! Yes, a smaller government." @@HE@@ starts eyeing all of the fancy-looking things in your office. "There is no issue with the low candidacy turnout, it merely means that we are the only ones interested in leading @@NAME@@!" @@HE@@ then places 100 @@CURRENCYPLURAL@@ onto your desk. "I'm sure we can come to some sort of arrangement, provided you enable our small, humble legislature to form officially," @@HE@@ says while quickly exiting your office.
[Effect] it is now common for the Speaker of the Lower House to also be its only member

[Option] "Why don't you just forgo elections and do it yourself?" your brother asks, whispering right into your ear. "Surely you can run @@NAME@@ without all these bumbling idiots, right? I mean, seriously, if they can't be bothered to rule themselves, that shows that they shouldn't have that privilege! Without all of this political posturing, you could get so much more done!" He stops and looks around the room, admiring all of your stuff. "And maybe if you have the time while doing an amazing job of ruling @@NAME@@, you could give me some money?" He then sits in an armchair and starts to read a book called Embezzlement for Idiots.
[Effect] the average amount of proxy bank accounts owned by a @@DEMONYM@@ is 20

Do people think this should be submitted?

[Minskiev]

too long

[Wille-Harlia]

too long

I mean, I personally think it's length is fine, though it is, I will admit, on the longer side.

[Wille-Harlia]

Any last feedback?

[Wille-Harlia]

I intend to submit this later today if nobody offers any feedback.

[Wille-Harlia]

Submitting momentarily.

[Australian rePublic]

Good Luck
