-Proposal #96: "Motion to Return to Old Voting procedure" was a polled discussion presented to the [[faction:yamatai:senate]] by Mifune Adele in [[timeline:ye_34]]. It was not a formalized proposal like more traditional senate proposals but won with a vote of 6 Yay / 2 nay but was vetoed by the [[characters:yamatai:ketsurui_himiko]] for lack of clarity after a round of fierce debate between Senator Mifune and Senator [[character:hanako]]. +Proposal #96: "Motion to Return to Old Voting procedure" was a polled discussion presented to the [[faction:yamatai:senate]] by Mifune Adele in [[timeline:ye_34]].

-Another [[user:aendri|senator]] rose up from the other end of the room, and spoke calmly. "I would like to make a motion to amend the law as written now. In addition to the current changes, I would like to amend the rules on motions to end to overrule a challenge, should it be opposed by at least a 75% majority, that lone individuals may no longer stonewall such an overwhelming majority as this." The tall man bowed slightly before resuming his seat. +Another [[members:aendri|senator]] rose up from the other end of the room, and spoke calmly.

 Standing up, enraged, the Mifune senator spouted, "Irregardless I shall include the projected change. As the writer of this bill I reserve the right to change it at any time of my own free will. It is preposterous that a single voter should stonewall this bill when such an overwhelming majority in so short a time has expressed their will for it to be passed. Based upon that, and accepting that my changes now also include this clause, I move again to close the voting."  Standing up, enraged, the Mifune senator spouted, "Irregardless I shall include the projected change.
