A general election is the method used in Talossa to select representatives for the Ziu and to vote on amendments to the Organic Law. A general election occurs each time that the Cosa is dissolved, either at the will of the Seneschal, following a government's failure to pass a vote of confidence or at the natural conclusion of its term of office.
