Two-Tier Membership

Written by: Sophie Sunday, May 21st, 2006

The following Motion has been made and seconded.
Please click here to discuss or vote on the motion.

I move that the words “between the ages of sixteen and eighteen” be removed from ARTICLE II — MEMBERSHIP, Section 1, which currently reads: “Eligibility for membership: Application for voting membership shall be open to registered voters in Nevada’s Second Congressional District, and on a restricted basis to prospective voters in the district between the ages of sixteen and eighteen. Membership is granted free of charge after registration online at Nevada Vote Direct.”

And, in ARTICLE II — MEMBERSHIP, Section 2, the sentence that currently reads, “Restricted members may not vote on pending legislation.” shall be amended to read: “Restricted members may vote on pending legislation, but their votes shall be recorded separately, and shall not be binding on Mr. Rosen’s votes in Congress.”

First Press Release

Written by: Daniel Monday, November 14th, 2005

I move that we produce a first NVD Press Release, announcing our launching on the Internet. The Press Release will be written by Daniel Rosen, and faxed to newspapers in the Second District, without further proofing or approval by NVD.

We vote here at the Nevada Vote Direct in order to determine how our Representative casts his vote in Congress, but we have to put our trusted candidate in that position before this great vision of a new kind of democracy may be realized.

We have a long way to go over the course of next year. But we have already taken the most important first step (in fact, an enormous leap), for we have succeeded in putting the technology in place. And of course the technology itself is going to help us to conduct our campaign and get our candidate elected.

For our great strenth is that we are planning our campaign and carrying it out even now, democratically. Our decisions are facilitated by the software installed at this site. It is the same software that we will be using after the election to vote on specific legislation before Congress. You may begin using this software to help us plan and conduct our campaign just as soon as you register as a member.
