Limited Confirmations and Universal Recall Act now at vote. Voting will conclude at 1:30 PM EST on Monday 30th December.

This is an amendment to the Scroll of Horus and as such it will require a two-thirds vote to pass the Council of Scribes.
Citizens may vote Aye, Nay or Abstain.

A reminder that Guardians are not eligible to vote in the Council of Scribes on constitutional amendments, as Guardians vote on such amendments separately in the Council of Guardians.

On Monday 30th December at 1:30 PM EST the Council of Scribes vote to Pass, by a vote of 6-0-1, The Limited Confirmations and Universal Recall Act. As it is a constitutional amendment a vote by the Council of Guardians is required before the Pharaoh can be asked to give their assent.

May the Gods of the Nile look favourably upon this Act.
