===== Council: Election Methodology =====

// filler text for summary //

==== Full Text ====

All elections shall be based in the Approval Voting methodology, and shall be secured with a security question and or identifier. Approval Voting is voting for all candidates that a voter approves of being in office. As such, ballots must have:

  - A question shall be proposed for the position(s) available, and
  - All persons who are running as a candidate may be voted for to the position.

The person(s) with the most votes shall win the office.

If there is ever a tie (within two vote lead) where it must be broken, then a tie breaker shall be held by the First-Past-The-Post election methodology. As such, these ballots must have:

  - A question shall be proposed for the position(s) available, and
  - Only one person may be voted for to that position.

The person with the most votes shall win the office.

// If there is ever an occurance outside of norms, where an unpredictable situation arises; the Headmaster may ask the Student Council to break from these rules in a hard majority vote, __a vote out of the total members of the student council who must vote yes__. //

Before an election, the Headmaster shall assemble an Election Committee and/or Election Chair (together to be known as EC) to organize and run the election in question.

For the Student Council election, this shall be called the Promposal Election.

For the Headmaster election, this shall be called the Beauty Queen/King/Sovereign Election //(styled on the person who is running after their preferred pronouns)//
