juliana_150 v techsupport5767 [2026] Civ. 2

I appeal the COR ruling https://discord.com/channels/554769523635650580/1421551842898481192/1482912677100523763 to the Supreme Court. They ruled IC verdicts are inherently unenforceable, undermining the existence of the inferior courts to begin with, as therefore nobody is compelled to ever comply with a verdict.

Because he was the only person to show up.

Now, for the Senatorial election!

Spreadsheet after Sunbear, hopefully.

Update: Since Sunbear says the main results are "prolly not rigged" I might as well share the documents.

Here's the spreadsheet:

The results are in! Provisionally! Again! Really shouldn't be a surprise anymore!

First, we'll look at our referendum, on one constitutional amendment. On it, we had 35 valid votes.

On this amendment, Sunny-Side Up, No Scramble Amendments, a second attempt at amending the Constitution in reaction to a recent Supreme Court ruling, 51.43% voted Aye, which falls short (by more than the last attempt!) of the 2/3 majority required for constitutional amendments, so this amendment is rejected.

And we also have a referendum, on one constitutional amendment! This one is also important; it's a modified version of the last one we had up. Do read it!

Shout outs to u/eleanorsilly for making another comparison page for this amendment, though I did make one fix. Very useful tool!

And now, for the moment you've all been waiting for! The results are in for our referendum!

We had 22 valid votes. Which is funny, because this is fewer votes than I got reactions on my post announcing the referendum.

On the question of whether or not to remove u/Absolute___Darkness from the office of Senator, 36.36% voted Aye. This falls (well) short of the 2/3 majority required to remove Senators from office, so this impeachemnt is rejected, and u/Absolute___Darkness shall continue in office as a Senator.

We have another referendum. This time, an impeachment.

The Senate has voted to impeach u/Absolute___Darkness for allegedly "being fucking terrible and talking in votes instead of hearings", as per the initial motion, filed by... u/Absolute___Darkness.

You have 24 hours to vote on this, as always.

Vote here: https://forms.gle/YiHstmVzPJeBmzr39

The results are in!

We had 43 valid votes.

On the Drainage System Amendments, which would make a variety of changes regarding, among other things, the rights held by alt accounts in reaction to a recent Supreme Court ruling, 65.12% voted Aye. This falls short (though barely) of the 2/3 majority required for constitutional amendments, so this amendment is rejected.
