Proposed by: @Domais​

Preamble

This amendment shall create a more secure Lazarus by banning citizens who have joined during any election from voting in such elections.

Section 1. Inserting Article IV, section 17.

(1) Article IV, section 17, shall be inserted into the Mandate:

Eligibility to vote or stand in elections

(17) No citizen who is granted citizenship during any election shall be eligible to vote or stand in that election. The ineligibility of newly admitted citizens to vote or stand in elections may be further regulated by law.

You could make it a bit clearer and more concise, like this, and allow for it to be expanded upon in the Elections Act or Assembly Procedure Act. Also realized that it left out standing for election.

(4) The Executive Council may allow the Prime Minister and Cabinet Ministers to be elected by the Assembly with a majority instant-runoff vote to a four-month term. Procedure for the elections will be defined by law. The Executive Council may hold a two-thirds vote to designate a Prime Minister or Cabinet Minister position as subject to election. No citizen admitted to citizenship at the start of an election period shall be eligible to vote or stand in that election and this may be further regulated by law.

(5) Appointment of Cabinet Ministers and Deputy Ministers, and regional representatives, as government officials, where not undergoing an election of the Assembly, will be subject to confirmation by 50%+1 vote of the Executive Council. No citizen admitted to citizenship at the start of an election period shall be eligible to vote or stand in that election and this may be further regulated by law.
