Times out 1-3 and fails -SingularByte

If the proposal ‘Running for Office (after building that office building)’ was enacted, replace the text from the rule Running for President:
Quorum for a Presidential Declaration of Victory is calculated as if the sum of all current Political Power values were being added to the player count, and Presidential Declarations of Victory do not put the game into Hiatus as a result of being ongoing.
with the text:
For the purpose of Enacting and Failing, the following changes are to be made:
* The number of votes of a type are considered to be the sum of the number of valid votes of that type provided by the Regions and by the City Architects.
* The number of City Architects is replaced by the Aggregate which is the sum of the number of City Architects and the total of the political power of all Regions
* The Presidential Declaration of victory is considered to be Unpopular if the number of Against votes on it is at least equal to half the AggregateThe Presidential Declarations of Victory do not put the game into Hiatus as a result of being ongoing.
Incentivising larger regions. It also makes sense since the original Running for President rule says that the ‘sum of all current Political Power values were being added to the player count’ for calculating the quorum.
Edit: Closed a potential hole brought forward by SingularByte. Also attempting to close a scam that I think is possible because of the original proposal.
SingularByte: he/him
Something to possibly keep in mind is that this pretty much removes the ability to hit quorum early since you’d only have the player’s raw votes to try and hit the elevated quorum, at least until it times out two days later.
