Recomendations to the PNC - Threshold
What, if any, should be the required amount of votes to recommend a policy, or other, proposal to the PNC and State Parties.

We should obviously have a Quorum to Ratify. BUT this looks like it requires 100% Quorum, which could be hard to reach. Ill post a bit more in the thread.

The need to ratify a single platform for everyone is completely artificial. Just publish all the varying positions along with statistics on how many members support them. This party is supposed to celebrate diversity, not stamp it out.

Lindsay, an easy trick to remembering what is left and right is making a right angle with your thumb and pointer finger on both hands then holding them up. The one that looks like an L is the left. The other is the side with the voting chart.

just in case it was unclear, my suggestion for requiring a quorum to ratify major policies for the pnc was within the context of suggestions to compile into a summary outline to be linked to #pnc at the next general assembly.

We should obviously have a Quorum to Ratify. BUT this looks like it requires 100% Quorum, which could be hard to reach. Perhaps this could be fixed by doing the voting online over, say, a weeks time? In which case we would need to coordinate with all the states to get emails for members... which could lengthen the process as they make necessary changes (or ask permission) to allow them to pass on emails to the PNC.

Considering PNC is biweekly, it may be doable. 100% Quorum is an extremely high rate, but I'm sure pestering everyone to vote a few times over the week would do.

Lindsay...
It says "all registered pirate party members"

Well, the vote to the left gives a percentage of who voted what.. so I dunno. Maybe?
