WHEREAS the current "3 strikes" provision of OrgLaw XVIII, 10, whereby a citizen loses their citizenship on not voting in three consecutive elections, is a form of compulsory voting;
AND WHEREAS this is a "bug" rather than a feature;
AND WHEREAS there should be a way to maintain one's citizenship without having to vote;
BE IT ENACTED by the Ziu of Talossa, to be endorsed by the people in referendum, that the Organic Law, XVIII, 10, which currently reads:
If any citizen should fail to vote in an election for the Cosa, he shall be deemed to have incurred a "strike", unless the Secretary of State believes that the failure to vote may have been unintentional, or the King believes that the citizen's record and the circumstances of his failure to vote warrant an exception being made, in either of which cases no strike shall be incurred. If any citizen incurs strikes in three consecutive elections, he shall be deemed to have renounced his citizenship.
shall be replaced in its entirety by:
"Any citizen who neither votes in any general election nor responds to any national census established by law for a period of two years, as calculated at any Election Deadline, shall be deemed to have renounced his citizenship."
