**Article I - Definitions:**

    “Council”, “the Council” - As defined in the Constitution
    
    “President”, “the President” - As defined in the Constitution
    
    “Government”, “the Government” - The Council, Supreme Court, and President combined
    
    “People”, “the People” - All citizens capable of voting for Council and the President
    
    “Voting Collective” (Hereby abbreviated as “V.C.”) - Collection of the People, containing the closest integer approximation of 1/7 the total amount of People
    
    “disctrict Minister” - Person in charge of district information

**Article II - V.C. Parameters**

    There is, to be established, seven V.C.s, labeled 1-7, each to be comprised of 1/7 the total population (see **Definitions**), in the beginning, however, each V.C will comprise of only one representing member, a Council member.

**Article III - V.C. Member Grouping**

Each V.C. will start as being composed only as one Council member each. Then, every person will have the option to join any V.C., until one of two conditions is met, those conditions being -

a.) A V.C. is filled with about 1/7 of the total People, in which case anybody else wanting to join said V.C. must join a different V.C.

b.) A V.C. that has over 5 people, has 3/5 or more of its members registered to the same political party, in which case no more members of said political party may join that V.C. until their V.C. houses less than 3/5 of that party. This only applies when joining a party, section c applies is other situation

c.) The total number of citizens in each party are not allowed to take up more than 4/5 of a V.C. 

d.) Citizens may choose to not change their V.C. if they wish not to.

e.) Citizens in each V.C. are not allowed to double the amount of citizens in any other V.C. if joining a separate V.C. will result in violating this rule, it is forbidden. If leaving a V.C. will result in violation of this rule, it must be approved by the council, with a 1/2+1 vote. 

In the case of someone joining after the V.C.s are established, have them follow **How to Switch V.C.s** (see below).

**Article IV - How to Switch V.C.s**

In some cases, one might want to leave their V.C. and join another, and the following will give a guide on how to do that -

1. There is a two month waiting period between the changing of a V.C. There will be a 1 week period after the aforementioned waiting period where one may choose to move V.C.s using the process shown above.
2. To change, you must get permission from the C.K. Include details such as your Reddit username, the V.C. of origin, and the V.C. where you wish to move to.
3. You may attempt to switch V.C.s two times each moving period, if you were not accepted at first

**Article V - Establishment of the Minister of the District**

    The Minister of the District will be in charge of District information.
    
    	This entails the following -

* Keeping track of the ratio of active to inactive members of the People
* Keeping track of the number of people in each V.C.
* Reporting the above information to the Council when deemed necessary by the Council
* Keeping the above information (excluding private information, which includes usernames and voting histories) stored in an easily accessible place
* Keeping private information (usernames and voting histories) stored securely and privately
* Hire non-governmental (that is, one who does not hold a position on government) people to assist their duties, if approved by council
* Request the paper for the ratio of active members, and their party, in each V.C. from the Minister of Elections

**Article VI - A New System of Voting** 

The following system will be set in motion the first of the month following the passing of this Act. 

Each V.C. will be represented by one seat on the Council.

Candidates will come from each V.C, and be elected into the respective seat by each V.C.

No V.C. can take two seats on the Council.

This system will not be population based, as there are an equal number of people in each V.C. Instead of the current number list voting system, each person gets one vote for their representative candidate of choice. Presidential and judicial elections will not be changed, and will be performed by the entire population.
